Synopsis

Seven cousins find themselves for the last time in the house of their childhood. While they are bored, they find the suitcase preserving the disguises in which they used to dress-up in to play when they were children. They decide to throw for the last time a game of Waging War.

Our take

In this idiosyncratic black-and-white short, boiling grownup tensions and philosophical woes suddenly find a chaotic release in the form of therapeutic child play. The freewheeling cinematography emulates the emotional catharsis and clarity made possible by adults learning to be kids again.
