1997 · 22 min

An uneasy, claustrophobic chamber piece that unsettles more than it explains, with ironic games curdling into something genuinely disturbing.

Overview
The bourgeois couple Esther and Michael have got themselves caught up in a seemingly ironic game of power, provocation and sexuality. Esther is already on the brink of madness when a young artist arrives. Requiem for something which is very small is a psychological horror-drama, with a cultural-political morale, and musical interludes.
