Synopsis
One quite ordinary summer morning, five different and unacquainted people leave their apartments at different floors and enter the lift. The doors close behind the last passenger and the lift starts descending. The moments pass, but the lift is not going to stop, the impression of endless moving appears and grows. Panic transforms into fear with every passing minute, the situation is getting out of control. The lift cage transforms into closed space, into a moving rat-trap from which there is no escape. How would the five people behave in such a hopeless situation? Their souls are assaulted by doubts and fear, they are filled with overwhelming feelings of inevitability and despair as around them the ordinary is turning into the unreal.
