COLD HOME

In a grey, frigid house, a woman is cutting vegetables that look more like stones, while a bored girl is playing with building blocks. The mother and daughter hardly speak to each other, treating each other with indifference. Everything is immersed in coldness and routine – even emotions, hidden in silence, and repetitive gestures. One day, a ray of sunshine comes through the window. It melts the ice bringing warmth and hope for change. ‘Cold Home’ is a poetic animation about a difficult family relationship, a child’s longing and the power of tiny glimmers of light in everyday greyness.
