Film soumis au OnShow International Film Festival 2026Synopsis
A lonely man struggles with an inner world shaped by isolation, emotional emptiness, and the quiet monotony of everyday life. Trapped within familiar spaces, he confronts the invisible boundaries between reality and perception, memory and experience. Through static frames, fragmented visual moments, and the unsettling presence of ordinary objects, Melancholia explores the psychological landscape of a man disconnected from himself and the world around him. A minimalist, postmodern meditation on loneliness and alienation, the film reveals the silent turmoil hidden beneath the surface of everyday existence.
