Another Moonscape

Jan, a young man, waits with a group of people for transportation that will bring them to a hidden place where a fresh start is possible. But the guide thinks he's not ready to leave just yet. Jan starts to doubt his motivations and gradually becomes uneasy with the place and people surrounding him.

Director Statement

Another Moonscape is a short fiction film that lets his characters search for meaningful insights but alludes at the same time to the western prejudices against everything related to spirituality.
The relationship between 'the guide' and 'guidance seekers' is an important subject that is also explored in this film.
