The loneliest Man in Town

Director: Tizza Covi, Rainer Frimmel

Cast: Al Cook, Alfred Blechinger, Brigitte Meduna

Al Cook lives surrounded by memories. His apartment and basement studio are crammed full of books, videotapes and vinyl records – all that remains of a life once fully lived. Here, time seems to stand still while, beyond these four walls, the world has moved on. The blues, the music that means everything to Al, is slowly being forgotten. His hometown no longer feels like home, and the loss of his beloved wife, Silvia, still weighs heavy on his heart. When a ruthless real estate company targets his home for demolition, his refuge is taken away, leaving him to face the ruins of his life. As Al is forced to let go of his treasures one by one, he must ask himself the painful question: How do you move forward when memories are all you have left? In the face of total loss, he chooses a radical new beginning.
