On trem­bling

This short is about a woman's shaking hands, which give a hint to her extremely sensitive, fragile & unarmed soul. It's also a story of a bond between a mother and her deaf child. After an afternoon in the bewildered parks the journey leads to a shopping mall. Suddenly, the little one disappears. A clear seizure of separation occurs. It leaves the woman in overwhelming fright, and us with her. Her fright develops into a psychotic search. A retrieval that discharges in a horrific yet unclear conclusion. An unique and shivering being on display: A young woman's trembling voyage into an emotional abyss.
