VAF: Best Feature: My neighbors’ neighbors

Vi befinder os i et cirkus, scenen er sat; en tryllekunstner skal til at lave sit store nummer, hvor assistenten får skåret sine ben af. Assistenten er kvinden i hans liv, hans et og alt, men cirkusnummeret går galt, han skærer benene af hende, og de løber ud af cirkusset. Vi følger nu benene hen til en lejlighedsbygning, hvor vi lidt efter lidt bliver draget ind i de forskellige beboeres liv, fortællinger, relationer, håb og drømme. Med flotte billeder, mix af materialer og teknikker, skøre fortællinger, vidunderlige karakterer og en lejlighedstrappe, sammenflettes naboernes historier, der hver især kæmper med livets dramaer og fornøjelser. Filmen er i VAF Best feature Competition.
