Film description
A visual variation about The Saddest Music in the World (2003), set in a new context. In freezing weather on a snowy street, a moving song reaches one's ear. A sad-eyed woman (Maria Medeiros) listens to the music and gazes at the singer. The film brings a sleepy and melancholic atmosphere with a crown of ambiguous reference to motherhood and a subtle allusion to incest theme. (ar)
