content

A young woman (Salka Weber) in a blue costume hurries through the deserted streets of Venice with a red cool box in her hand. When she arrives at the Rialto Bridge , she hesitates, sadness and sadness overcome her. The dead goldfish in the box should be thrown into the water, but it is not yet successful at this point. On the way through the city - past slide guitarists , gondoliers and pop singers - different life plans collide, which finally open up new horizons for women.

Enigmatic and playful, the film tells of the farewell to childhood, of self-determination and a new beginning in its own, strictly composed visual aesthetic.

production

Together with Salka Weber, who took on the leading role, Cooper wrote and produced the film, which is set in a deserted Venice .
