Last Days of Summer
France, India2023fiction15'Międzynarodowy konkurs krótkometrażowy (2023)
A small community lives in a village isolated from the world by a Himalayan mountain range. A mysterious sound, a thunder or rumble, can be heard from afar but only by two young shepherds. What does it bode? Why cannot others notice it? The young men decide to solve this mystery and go to the mountains regardless of danger. It is a simple, albeit not banal, story focusing on ecology and social issues featuring spectacular views and a credible performance by amateur artists. Are these the final days of summer for our planet? The film has already won acclaim at the festival in Rotterdam.
