Country:
Runtime:
One Minute
While lazily doing his laundry, a college student senses something strange emanating from the washing machine. Peering inside, he discovers a small hidden space—and a mysterious family living within it. He soon realizes that this hidden world connects to his own through various "holes" scattered throughout his home. Obsessed, he begins to secretly observe their lives.
But one day, the world behind the holes vanishes. Just as he's about to give up, he feels a gaze from the peephole in his front door. Looking through it, he finds that he, too, is being watched—by someone else.
A short film exploring the blurred boundary between observer and observed, where unseen gazes connect parallel existences through the voids of everyday life.
