A Short Film about Love - I'm So Obsessed
Through a telescope aimed at the opposite apartment building, a shy young man develops an intimate fixation on an older woman he barely knows.
Tomek secretly watches Magda from his small apartment every night, constructing fantasies around her lonely existence. Their lives collide when Magda discovers she has been observed for months. What follows is an emotionally complex relationship shaped by voyeurism, desire and vulnerability. Rather than offering easy answers, the film asks whether genuine connection can emerge from obsession.
Tomek bespiedt Magda elke avond vanuit zijn kleine appartement met een telescoop en bouwt fantasieën op rond haar eenzame bestaan. Hun levens botsen wanneer Magda ontdekt dat ze al maanden wordt bekeken. Wat volgt is een emotioneel complexe relatie gevormd door voyeurisme, verlangen en kwetsbaarheid. In plaats van eenvoudige antwoorden te geven, onderzoekt de film of echte verbondenheid kan ontstaan uit obsessie.
