Dream

2016, Latvian. Directed by Laila Pakalnina.

In the middle of nowhere there is a shop called ‘Dream’ where people go to only to inevitably wake up

A shop by the side of the road. One after another, people enter and exit the small building. The randomness and illogical nature of the action feels unreal. The sense of timelessness and of being in an unnamed place further heightens the dreamlike nature of the scene. The nearly motionless black-and-white camera records a fragment of life in a place torn from the context of the world.
