Synopsis

One evening, one house, one family coming home.

The architects wanted a film that felt like a memory rather than an advert. We cast the owners, kept the camera slow, and let the sun do the editing: every shot is ten minutes later than the last, so the film ends in blue hour as the lights come on.
