Where are you?

A very experimental film. As the only moving space in the whole film, the coffin fully supports the film's 90-minute length, limited space, few props and the only visible actor. The film is only through such a simple element, for us A tense but ultimately unsuccessful escape is vividly presented.
The large number of phone calls in the first half of the film are a bit procrastinated, but the second half of the film gradually increases the visibility of the film with the increase of story elements and plot twists. The film has established its critical and ironic temperament from the beginning, and this feeling gradually increases as the story escalates. At the end of the film, a clever montage (I think it should be a dialogue montage) at the end of the film plunges the audience into the endless darkness with the protagonist.

    To be able to make such a moving movie in a small coffin, it can also ebb and flow with the emotions of the characters, and there is a glimmer of hope and emotion before the final complete despair. It can be seen that the director's skills are extraordinary.
