Synopsis

It is an old shady room seen from the room’s threshold. There is an old couch, a dining table, a TV set, an old stove, and a mirror right next to it. TV is broadcasting a matchmaking program for women. The program shows the speeches of women who want to marry and there are dialogues about marriage and children. A woman prepares dinner for her husband. The room is dead silent with the exception of TV. The camera turns with a nonstop motion through the room. It is a single shot film where the final resolution to decades of marital hostility is solved with extreme prejudice.
