FRENCH PREMIERE


Tomasz Winski

Anna and Lizzie share a flat with George - a tax consultant who thinks he is a dog. George supports them and does whatever makes them satisfied. He agrees to their strict rules: at home, he may only walk on all fours, isn’t allowed to speak, must lick their feet and obey every order. Girls abuse their power because George lets them do that. They think that he enjoys torture from their hands, so they keep degrading him. But in the end, George’s soul revolts – his inner man awakens and he seeks a cruel revenge, breaking free.

With climate change, the future of our existence on the planet seems uncertain. Being part of the planet's life and ecosystem, our existence depends on certain favorable climate conditions. It is, thus, vulnerable to the environment changes we may face in the near future. 'Scarcity' is a journey through desolate spaces, abandoned by humans, lost in time and history. The guide, a descendant of one of the first cloned animals, reveals memories of Earth's inhabitants trying to understand what happened.
