Vanishing

b3

Contemporary Serbia. All the young people left for the cities. Villages are becoming almost deserted. The population decreases, without being regenerated enough…

The hero of our story is the loneliest little girl in the world. She has no company. She is the last pupil in the school. She is the last child in the village. Only old people down there, and an archaic kind of life. Her journey from her house to the school reveals around her the real string of motions, colors, sounds, objects, buildings, habits, faces…, all which seems to be slowly fading to disappearance.

The film tries to be a metaphor on vanishing of one people…
