Before Twilight

The boarders of the House of Veteran Artist are bored with the tediousness of their everyday life and dream about one more, maybe the last, big role. Out of nowhere, in their extremely quiet life, appears a disordered ghost – the actor with a past – and two young ones. The idea to stage Goethe’s “Faust” pleases everyone. Humorous film about the joy of life against its passing.
