BENCH
A road by the seaside. Just before the break of dawn. Deep silence. Two young men are strolling along by the sea. Looking around aimlessly,they see something in the water that grabs their attention. They slow down, and stop. Their
confusion melts into wonder. Intrigued, they gather acquaintances to conquer their increasingly futile fantasy.
Bench was honoured with national and international awards, including Best Director and Best Short Film.
