HIVES

by Igor Šeregi, Boaz Debby, Tomaš Kratochvil, Simon Dolensky, Michael Carson Lennox

synopsis

Thursday morning, Jerusalem. Nira goes to work. Ahmad in London does the same, Ralf in Cologne and a priest in Prague too. Matija, Croat, goes to work as well. Ok, he doesn’t, but he acts as if he does. Ahmad is taking his routine red bus journey. Out-of-breath young man comes in and interrupts it. Schoolteacher Nira is also interrupted – her pupil jumps out and performs a love rap song he wrote for her. The priest in Prague doesn’t feel like singing today, he is in the mood for (over)sleeping instead. Someone falls asleep, someone else – Ralf – falls in love.
