Главной героине Анне постоянно кажется, что в квартире есть кто-то чужой. Наша команда очень рада, что мы смогли снять фильм несмотря на все трудности, вызванные карантином. Съемки длились 16 часов, съемочной площадкой стала квартира Макса Балтера. Главную роль в фильме сыграла Маруся Ионова, актриса социального рейв бэнда TseSho. Спасибо всем, кто помог нам сделать кино!
