It's night, rain. Father and amateur filmmaker, in the church, are shooting a documentary. The filmmaker captures in the camera, paintings at the ceiling of the cathedral. They shift personal impressions about their meanings. They evoke God, angels, demons, and men. Someone arrives at the door of the church. Unintentionally, both are involved in a millennial conflict.

Art Director, Creative Director, TV Advertising Writer, Director, Publisher and Owner of Planet House Propaganda & Marketing.

Director's Statement
On drawing comics and cartoons, I fully understood how to tell a story, write a script and show the different angles of a camera. Television commercials gave me the experience to create the correct pace of each action, in a sequence, or specific scene. In fact, to shoot another films is only a matter of time and opportunity.
