Beromut

Short Film for Children / 15 Min / 2024

Set during a child's birthday celebration, Beromut unfolds within a colorful world where imagination and reality coexist.

When the existence of Lona's invisible companion is questioned, the film explores childhood belief, collective doubt, and the gradual transformation of perception. Through vibrant visual worlds and fantastical imagery, it reflects on imagination as a space of freedom, resilience, and possibility. At its core, the film is a meditation on growing up and the fragile persistence of wonder.
