Mrs. Happy
Nikola Klinger / Czech Republic / 2020 / World Premiere / 15 min.
synopsis
A platonic relationship between a young girl employed at a spa hotel and its former client develops through romantic letters full of old-fashioned respect, exchanged between the couple in the mid-50s. Nostalgic images of the Luhačovice colonnade and period photographs underscore the lines permeated with love, belief and disappointment.
“Upon seeing the envelope with my initials, you may well wonder who it is that writes to you. Of course, it is just little me...” Mrs. Happy, 1:32 – 1:40
