An unusual visit to a large, empty apartment. But is it empty or not? Maybe a family has lived there or is going to live there. Maybe a young girl is going to escape from there. Maybe some of the old-timers who lived there never left. The walls themselves tell the stories of the time passing by.

Agnes was just kinda fuckin around in this one. Very avant garde, lots of turkeys on tables.

“Your eyes have gone pale”.
Love the premise of this short! The presentation is pretty good too! The dialogue is strange and more metaphorical than informative. The pacing might be a struggle at times even for a short film, but it’s worth checking out!
Overall, A very strange short, but beautiful in its own way.
