Cocoon

Synopsis

Cocoon is a contemporary short dark drama that focuses on the need to stay human in a concrete world.
Sophia is a toddler trapped at home with her dead mother. As days go by, none of the neighbours in the building become aware of the situation. Only Nick, the local postman, gets increasingly suspicious when he finds the letters he delivered laying outside on the flat's doorstep again.
