The music of Erich Zann, 15min., Hungary
Directed by Dóra Barbara Sánta
The story features the figure of a silent old man who feverishly plays the violin in his attic room every night to stave off some unimaginable horror, which is not explained at the end of the novel. The story is told from the perspective of a student who moves into the same building as the musician for a short time. The young man wants to find out the history of the scary-sounding music and asks the musician to play it for him and also to explain the curtained attic room window, which visibly upsets the musician. In the end, the student pulls the curtain and flees from the building in fear and never finds the street where he used to live. We will never really know or understand the explanation for everything.
