Rabot

Belgium2017documentary95'Konkurs dokumentalny (2018)

This place has nothing to do with the ideas about a Western European country. Living in a high-rise building with social apartments means vegetation on the margins of society. Following the decision of demolishing the building, the stories of its residents are revealed: their loneliness, isolation and lack of opportunities. Devoid of any commentary and with the emphasis on visual aspects, the camera captures the interiors, which are being deserted, showing them as a painful metaphor of human faith.
