Brief synopsis

Somewhere in a block of flats, a young man is sitting in front of his computer. He presses the record button and tries to find the right words for a speech. His best friend Livia and her fiancé Felix are getting married in two days, but he can't think of anything. Or he doesn't want to think of anything.

The upcoming wedding triggers old memories and feelings in him. They leave him in a place that he didn't know before.

David Brückner's SIMON is a conceptional short film and a production of the master course Expanded Theater at Bern University of Arts.

"Attentive and Sensitive"
- Olga Tokarczuk, SIMON
