"Balconies" showcases the peculiarities and endearing quirks of everyday life in a high-rise building by offering a glimpse into the balconies of its residents. Set to the rhythm of the sounds of the inhabitants, we experience a day in their lives. The music drives the narrative forward until the sun sets. The tale of coexistence among diverse individuals in the microcosm of the building is simultaneously a poetic commentary on societal interaction. Within the vast structure of the world, everyone has the freedom to shape their lives uniquely.
