ONLY THE LONELY

Short film, colour, 13 mins, English language

Aíma has a dark secret & debilitating agoraphobia.  To alleviate her loneliness she immerses herself in a tantalising online-world where she meets and connects with a like-minded stranger.  She's not afraid of what the outside world could do to her, but rather, what she might do to it.
