FOOL

short film | 2023

Costa, a person in his early twenties, learns from a fortune teller that he will have a new and exciting romantic encounter with someone in the near future. The idea of this awakens in him a fantasy in which, in an exaggeratedly romanticized setting, a museum, he meets an unknown person with whom he can freely live out his idealized and perfect relationship.

After returning to reality, he realizes his actual situation – a dysfunctional monogamous relationship with his partner, who does not share many interests with him, especially the one that is most important to him – the desire to dream life together.
