PLOT

Telefon-Saudade is an intimate short drama about an elderly woman mourning her lost son, who finds unexpected comfort in conversations with a phone scammer posing as her grandchild. As her daughter struggles to understand this fragile emotional coping mechanism, the film reveals the quiet depths of loneliness and the complex dynamics of love, grief, and letting go. Through everyday spaces and quiet moments, Telefon-Saudade explores the need to be heard—and the illusions we cling to in search of connection.
