Easter Eggs

Berlinale Shorts 2021

Jason dreams of having his own mountain bike. If he could find the splendid parrots that recently escaped from their cage at the Chinese restaurant he might be able to sell them for a lot of money and realise his dream. His friend Kevin will surely help him. But Kevin is just too angry. A melancholic portrait of a toxic friendship, depicted in broken colours.
