HIDE

Shorts

Synopsis

Two brothers play hide and seek at home. While one brother counts down, the other hides in a small closet. Seconds pass and become minutes… years… decades. Every once in a while, the boy peeps out of the closet. What he sees becomes increasingly strange and unfamiliar. With each peek, everything and everyone changes, then fades away until he is left completely alone.
