4:15 p.m. The end of the world

Gabi Virginia Șarga, Cătălin Rotaru

Romania, 2016, 15 Min

A young delivery man reluctantly takes pity on a hitchhiker trying to catch a lift on a rainswept country road. Quickly the unusual nature of the encounter comes to light, as the driver is forced to confront some strong, though long-suppressed emotions: can he forgive or will the urge for revenge gain the upper hand?

The courier and the hitchhiker he has picked up inevitably end up talking. The former considers the words of his fellow passenger provocative, calling forth as they do a deep-seated issues, whilst the latter perceives of his utterances as nothing more than well-intentioned. A short journey with uncertain consequences that raises fundamental questions of existence and religion. JG
