The cue to change from despair to hope is an accumulation of trifling matters that move our hearts. It is the little things, like when you see a single flower blooming energetically, a beautiful sunset after the rain, or a girl with a nice smile. It is not encouragement by words but gentle encouragement or hope.

This short film was inspired by the biblical story. The ?Golden Calf? is a false divinity, a mask placed over the face of the true God by the idolatry of the people. The film evokes the story of that cult and of the vengeance taken on his people by a jealous and iconoclastic God.
