During a stormy night of grave political crisis, an expert interpreter suffers a nervous breakdown. Young diplomat Konrad has to step in and interpret between the two conflicting superpower leaders, who are loudly negotiating the world’s destiny to either peaceful resolution or total annihilation.
Over the course of eleven intense minutes, this award-winning short film acts as a ticking time bomb, imbued with cold war tension, dazzling camera angles and exquisite set design. Carried by excellent performances, this political chamber piece puts translation in the centre of the frame, literally.
