On Solid Ground

“Über Wasser” / “On Solid Ground”, written & directed by Jela Hasler
12 Min.

A city, in summer. The morning coolness in the river does not last long, the heat covers the city like a magnifying glass under which supposedly trivial everyday nuisances take on weight. Eli tries to escape the narrowness and agitation of the city – yet keeps being confronted with aggression. And the rage starts to build up within her.
