    • Synopsis
    • Relegated into irrelevance after a controversial exhibit, avant garde artist Vasil Daslavov (Dimiter D. Marinov) searches for a way to win back the favor of his longtime art dealer, the bombastic Wilhelm Heinkempf (Stuart Murphy).

      As he prepares a new collection, his eccentric muse, Luna Monroe (Carl Nowak) proposes another, more extreme concept - to tie themselves together by rope for a year, testing the lengths at which humans can coexist. Personal differences are sacrificed. Privacy walls are demolished. Daily activities turn into tense negotiations. It's all in the name of high art.

      Pushing all boundaries, the oddball pair strives to reach the world’s closest connection. Videographer Daniel Trowbridge (Gavin Cade Hulberg) documents their radical experiment.
