Story

Cigarettes, keys, a cell phone, a wallet–an unfinished life lying in a plastic police bag on the kitchen table. A father and daughter’s eyes meet as they take in the evidence of absence, silently measuring the distance between life and death. From the depths of the bag comes the sound of a phone ringing. That sound will become the echo of human grief. The movie Red is about the scraps of life of Judyta and her father Zbigniew, shown across several days following the death of Judyta’s brother, Marcin, killed in a car accident. As they try to come to terms with the void left by the loss of a loved one, all their mutual resentment and finger pointing is unexpectedly interrupted by a stranger: Red.
