Sugar (2025) 14’47
The film follows a married couple caught in the turbulence of illness. Nothing here aims to explain suffering or offer resolution. It lingers on gestures, hesitations, and objects that take on unexpected weight. Sugar and sweetness remain within the uncertainty of these moments, letting connection emerge and fail without forcing meaning onto any of them.
