A Game is a short film adapted from the celebrated Italian author Alberto Moravia's short story Let's Play a Game. The film traces a strange and unsettling encounter between a young girl and her divorced mother, who begin with an innocent game that quickly reveals far more than either intended. As the girl manipulates the rules, the mother finds herself slipping into an altered state — speaking and hearing as though inhabited by someone else. In that suspended moment, authority shifts, masks fall, and long-buried secrets surface. A precise and psychologically rich piece of filmmaking, A Game delves into the hidden power dynamics within families and the complex, sometimes haunted space between mothers and daughters.
