Wild

Fiction, 2016

Synopsis
A woman has a strange encounter on her way to work. She fi nds herself gazing into a wild pair of eyes, and it seems to her that her entire life hitherto has been a joke. She cannot forget the instant and becomes a hunter who indeed fi nally manages to lock the wild creature in her high-rise apartment. Now she herself begins to assume a new identity, one which breaks with all the fetters of bourgeois life. Strangely, this pleases the people around her, particularly her boss… It seems they all share her secret yearning.
