International Short Film Contest 53 ED. 2025

Czech Republic 2024 20' Fiction
Beata lives a happy life with Jura. They create imitations of well-known paintings together – he takes pictures of her; she poses for him. They love each other. They catch happy moments of their lives in photos that they carry as unchanging memories. Their lives take an unexpected turn, photos fade and memories slowly begin to change. Beata is afraid that when she closes and opens her eyes, she will discover that she has lived in vain.
