Bearer of Bad News

directed by Willkamayu Oomen

Sven is a bearer of bad news: the man a construction firm sends to tell injured migrant workers, in the flat language of policy and fine print, that no one will answer for what the job cost them. Moving from one hollow room to the next, he reads his verdicts to broken men until their faces begin to follow him home, and one of them, fully awake, refuses to let him look away.
