Erhart (2022) 15

Czech Republic | 2022 | 71 min.

Erhart, 23, arrives in his hometown to see his mother, who has had a siezure and is in hospital. She lives alone in the family home and has been struggling with mental health issues since her husband was convicted of defrauding a local factory. She tells Erhart that their house is to be sold, and also that his missing father has returned to town and will put an end to the sale and put everything in order. However, Erhart learns that their house actually belongs to an anonymous company in a tax haven, and begins doubting what he once considered to be a clear, absolute truth.
