Bless You!
Poland2017animated5'
It is very easy to contract something from another human being, not just rhinitis. It may be a passion, good humour or hatred. You may adopt someone else’s lifestyle or adjust yourself to the rules and standards imposed by them. What else this might be is left to the viewers’ imagination. "Bless You!" is a brief and funny story showing that each interaction with another person leaves a mark. And you may also become infected with yourself...
