Israel / Col / 14'00" / No dialogue and subtitles
Deep inside a municipal art museum, a single guard is the sole queen of a small exhibition. When being forced to leave the room, her exile becomes a journey in search of a new home.
 
Artists' Statement
People come to museums to see art, but at the same time they are being watched by other people. This notion was the seed from which our story grew, about a character whose very position makes her the classic outsider - a museum guard. In this tale of loneliness and the search for home, it is possible that eventually we were writing about ourselves.
Juror's Comment
The use of medium and long shots is excellent, and the sound editing effectively advances the plot. In particular, the characters' actions, which switch back and forth between movement and stillness, is not only interesting, but also rhythmic. (Honkaz Fung)
