Story
An old woman flies past six floors after jumping from the roof of her apartment block. Six stories on the poor state of humanity, told with humour and rare imagination to the accompaniment of a pulsating soundtrack from Amon Tobin. A woeful burlesque set in the present by one of Europe’s most original contemporary filmmakers.
Summary
"In 'Free Fall,' seven stories unfurl across seven floors of an apartment block, each a vivid snapshot of human experience, tied together by unseen threads. An elderly woman's plunge from the rooftop kicks off this pulsating journey through humor, imagination, and Amon Tobin's evocative soundtrack. Each floor hosts a distinct world, shifting between genres and styles, mocking reality with absurdist twists. Yet, they converge into one cohesive narrative, a peculiar tale of humanity in all its complexity."
