Description:
An intimate, original documentary film in which several stories intertwine during one night. On this one night, similar to many others, people in a big city, harassed by loneliness, want to talk to someone. Some call – often unnecessarily – an ambulance, others call the radio, where the leader asks about the end of the world – what does it mean for each of us individually. They talk about tragic, painful and sometimes small, even funny things. Their great need to talk, to be heard, to be with someone next to them is noticeable and moving. Radio is a motif connecting this night world – we hear them in an ambulance, in city monitoring, where on dozens of screens we can see the nightlife of the city. The radio is a film clamp and source of the most important questions. Co-financed by the Lodz Film Fund in 2013.
