LET EVERYTHING COLAPSE
(Fiction Short Film)
Catalina wants to fall in love. She wants magic in a world of coldness, disconnection, and indifference. Her desire is so strong that she cannot perceive that she is alone, pulling on a rope, and that sometimes it’s better to let go in time rather than holding on and getting hit in the face.
