He is a philosopher, she is a photographer. For some reason, he is looking for death, she is looking for a new model for shooting. Having met at the edge of the cliff, they change their lives, involuntarily influencing an accidental witness of these ties.
Directors Statement
The film is philosophical. Message - whatever the reasons that you want to stop life, they are not important. The only important thing is that you can leave them where they are and not drag extra load. Go light. Live and know, life will turn out to be unexpectedly beautiful, even when you are covered by emptiness and loss of meaning. Life in itself is meaningful and ridiculous to refuse it. Funny and ridiculous ... The idea of the plot of the film came spontaneously. I was inspired by the composition of the Boombox group “Trimai mene”, which was included in the soundtrack to the film, with the permission of the musical collective. The script has been rewritten many times. Dialogues corresponded over and over again, not only at the preparation stage, but also on the set. An important decision in preparing for the shoot was not to cling to working with professional actors. This is primarily a training film, and the atmosphere in which the creative group learns seemed to me the most optimal. A professional actor, perhaps, would insist on his vision, as more experienced, and this could harm the conceived.
