Two lifelong friends escape to the countryside for a weekend away from everything. But what begins as a break quickly unravels.

As alcohol, drugs, and buried tensions rise to the surface, their friendship is pushed to its limits. Conversations left unsaid begin to surface, and the line between escape and self-destruction starts to blur.

Desiderium is a raw, character-driven short film exploring friendship, addiction, and emotional collapse. Grounded in realism and performance, the film captures the quiet moments as much as the chaos. The things people don’t say, and the weight they carry.

This is not a polished, commercial story. It’s honest, uncomfortable, and deliberately human.
