A reflection on incommunicability and loneliness. The short Contrasts two protagonists who inhabit the Same space, exploring how idiosyncrasy governs today the Human relationships and showing as the only possible contact it is often the mutual disturbance.

DIRECTOR’S NOTES:
"Idiosyncrasy" is my first narrative through images, an experimental exercise focusing on silent language and a personal study of style.
