  • The lightning strike of emotions or love at first sight -

The unfathomable mystery of that moment and its volatile dynamics are
being explored through a queer love story. Two women, one apartment
and a storm of lustful emotions. This romantic treatise seems to need
no dialogue due to the synthesis of a tugging, unsettling soundtrack and
the overly aestheticised visuals caught in slow motion. While floating
between melodrama and horror, this LGBTQ+ short film opens itself not
only to the subject of love but also embraces the sombre echo which
stems from the loss of said liaison.

Starring: Anna Notova, Elli Treptow
