A small village in Slovakia is almost entirely made up of the elderly. With nothing much in town to occupy the residents, their lives seem to revolve around the public announcements that ring out from speakers affixed to poles and houses. The most important news of the season: a new funeral director is needed for the crowded, unkempt graveyard. Who will get the job? Who wants it? A portrait of the slow death of a village, where the old times are already gone and the new ones have not yet arrived.

(Screening with The Angelmakers and Nine Forgotten Songs in the program Assassins, Widows, and Funeral Directors, Oh My!)
