Back

8 minutes

It is a story about a woman with a desperite desire to escape reality and fly away. But she will have only eight minutes, that’s all she could afford. And on a very moment when artificial sun lamp turns off, she would have to go back to reality. First to cheap sunbed, then to everyday life with sleet, traffic jams and stress – ultimately back into the daily routine. The tiny vacation is over. But only until the next time, when she again will fall for a moment of weakness.
