The Plastic Cardboard Sonata
NR 1 hr 16 min
He is a plain estate agent who lives his uneventful life in the anonymous suburb of an unspecified city Indeed such a showing of compulsive ordinariness conceals his predicament of autistic isolation Therefore as he attempts to make up the illusion of an ideal world he daily puts on a pantomime of the perfect neighborhood which is painstakingly staged by a group of paid walk on people While such an artifice seems to help him fulfill his unexpressed love dream a harsh overwhelming reality forces him to give up his illusions and eventually get in touch with the imperfect human dimension The Plastic Cardboard Sonata is a story of urban loneliness featuring lyric suggestions in the context of a paradoxical frame By means of an accurate use of silence it sketches out the essence of daily life malaise
