Clean Up
Sebastian Mez

A man cleans chairs in an empty, cinema-like room. In the distance, one hears an announcer's groaning voice which tells us that the witnesses have entered the room. A curtain in front of the ciars opens and gives a clear view of a pane of glass. This is a film about the death penalty which counts on the audience's imagination.
