Red Light

Prague Short Film Festival Presents 2017 / Na cherveno / Bulgaria, Croatia 2016

In a godforsaken town somewhere in Bulgaria, a bus stops at a red light at the only crossroads in sight. Minutes pass by and there is no sign of green. But the bus driver refuses to go while the signal is red. The fact that the traffic light is obviously out of order is of no consequence.
