ZESI

Directed by

Panagiotis Papafragkos

Greece

Two women share the same house, the same everyday routines — yet not the same world. Each presence mirrors the other, and still, an invisible distance lies between them: a silence that cannot be bridged. The intimacy of home slowly turns into a labyrinth of solitude, where every movement, every glance, carries the weight of what remains unspoken.

Gradually, the shadows of their inner lives spill into the space, transforming coexistence into a stage of relentless waiting. From confinement to absolute light, truth seeks a passage outward, but words are never enough; only the body remains, beating like a drum within the silence.

Our bodies are cauldrons at boil.
Zesi means the seethe — the very act of boiling. That is the title.
