Il silenzio delle cicale

Director: Veronika Schoberer
Short, metaphorical drama about the complexity of remorse, loneliness, lust and self-reflection. A young man meets a woman by an abandoned pool. Is his imagination getting the better of him?
Loss and gain. Despair and hope. Anger and forgiveness. This young man’s world is just as real as the one in his imagination. By an abandoned pool, with the sound of crickets in the background, the protagonist tries to deal with the feeling of loss and the memories that threaten to tear him up. The young woman he met so suddenly is part of it. Or isn’t she? Short, metaphorical drama about a tragic protagonist and his fantasy. Or is it his confusing, anxious memory, after all?
