A picture of a completely deserted district somewhere in the Netherlands. Social housing for nuclear families is mapped in a long camera movement, with a narration on the soundtrack about financial security, interest and suchlike. But in visual terms, the short film offers a very different insight into the living room mentality of the modern inhabitants. Where is there any room for art in this deathly architecture?
