night painting

short film (16 mins, Hungary, 2016)

The day we packed our bags and moved out was the end of an era. It’s summer and the end of three girls’ university studies. They’re moving out of the flat they’ve shared for four years. But before they move out, there’s one last thing to do: repaint their room. From beneath paint buckets and boxes filled with dusty belongings the end of an era emerges. Nobody’s ready for it. They have until dawn.
