Synopsis

"Picture a typical movie poster. One featuring a young woman looking away, like she's ready to leave. It's beautiful, and makes you want to watch it. Unfortunately, you never will."

Vita revisits her first attempt at filmmaking 15 years prior. Shooting a semi-autobiographical film starring her friend Dina, Vita’s eager but inexperienced approach causes the production to spiral into chaos, leading to significant disruptions and a near-fatal accident.
