As you sleep the world empties | Vasilis Kekatos

30.04.2020

An epidemic has hit mankind. People from all ends of the Earth are asleep, and no one knows when they'll wake. Few are those who are not infected; among them, a boy who fell in love with a girl right before the disease outbreak. With an old camera, he attempts to capture what beauty is left, so that the girl can see it once she awakens.
