As Vitrines

A young documentary filmmaker returns to a faded coastal town to explore a string of mysterious displays that vanish each night from a shuttered museum. As she interviews shopkeepers, old harbor workers, and a reclusive curator, the town’s quiet legends resurface—tales of memory, loss, and the way objects can hold a life of their own. When a hidden corridor reveals a sequence of shifting glass boxes that reflect not only scenes but possibilities, she must decide whether to capture the truth on film or protect the fragile stories that keep the town from forgetting. A meditation on perception, longing, and the cost of remembering.
