Our take

Kleber Mendonça Filho’s arresting short carries the spirit of his later debut feature Neighboring Sounds: an apartment’s cacophonous noises lend this eccentric comedy a sinister air. Building to an unforgettable climax, this look at our symbiotic bonds with appliances is a hypnotizing treat.
