The Night Is Fading Away

2025 · 104 min

A quiet, tender drift through empty halls and old films, lonely but gently consoling, like a late-night screening you don't want to end.

Overview: Pelu is a thirty-something who barely survives on his salary as a projectionist at a municipal film club. After losing his job, he agrees to stay on as a night watchman and ends up living secretly inside the cinema, accompanied by the films he reviews every night.
How it feels: Melancholic, warm, earnest and dark. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
About: Isolation, work, art, loneliness
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
