Esti Sochorcová / Czech Republic / 10 min.

synopsis

Giants of glass and steel, rising before our very eyes. Symbols of a new era, proud of speed and convenience. But what have we sacrificed for this life of perfection? What have we left behind beneath these gleaming giants of modernity? And what parts of ourselves remain buried there as well?

This film was made during the 2025 My Street Films workshop under the guidance of Marika Pecháčková.

This film will be featured in the online edition of Ji.hlava IDFF.

biography

A woman, a Moravian, a student, a daughter, a girlfriend, a friend, a lover of music and film and many other things I both am and am not. It’s hard to sum it all up in just a few lines.
