Synopsis

The Covid-19 lockdown which swept across Europe in the spring of this year gave filmmakers countless new subjects and angles to look at people and how they relate to each other from a distance. Director Suncica Ana Veldic used the opportunity of what originally was supposed to be a camera and sound test to gather material for a short documentary reflecting on this distance. The filmmaker is hidden behind a camera while further away the newly acquired subject of her interest is hidden behind a face mask.
Filmed on the beautiful island of Murter on the Dalmatian coast.
