Synopsis

A person carries a massive stone and drops it down a cliff. Light and joyful, they walk away—only for the same stone to fall on their head moments later. Undeterred, they lift it again, carry it across the cliff, and drop it once more. Again, they move away, carefree… and again the stone comes crashing down. This cycle repeats several times. Finally, they set the stone on the ground and walk away.

 

Creators statement

This is one of our absurdist films, a fresh reinterpretation of the Sisyphus myth. Unlike Sisyphus, who bears the stone forever because he cannot summon the courage to let it go, our character chooses freedom. The burden exists only as long as you carry it. In other words, humans are inherently free—unless they consent to their own captivity.
