A virus has wiped out most of the world’s population. Europe is under United Nations quarantine and survivors live in small groups in ghost cities across the continent. The story of two friends, and the girl who came between them. Nominated, Best Short Film, Polish Film Awards.
“We drive slowly, because all the manholes have been stolen to sell as scrap metal and the streets are covered with branches and dead leaves. We pass a massive hospital, rows of 70s era apartment blocks. Nearly all of the windows are gone, leaving massive facades of square black holes. We stop at a large intersection with a school on one corner, some of its walls covered with paintings by children.”
