Project Description

A substantial part of life is claimed by boredom. Beauty, love, work sometimes it just isn’t worth getting out of bed. A girl in a strawberry pie factory, a stressed desert nomad, a Wall street stockbroker, the last living WW2 female spy, a painter who paints. Time for 42 years, the first school shooter in history who wounded eleven children and killed two adults because: ‘I don’t like Mondays’, are the characters in this film. John Malkovich gives voice to the inner bored human being. He crawls under your skin prompting questions: How many people in the world are like me?
