Loft

Synopsis

LOFT tells the story of five married men who have secret rendezvous with their mistresses in a shared loft. Their secret deal suits them down to the ground until, one winter morning they stumble upon a young woman’s dead body. None of the five men knows who she is, where she comes from or how she found her way into the loft (which they each have their own key to). To save their own bacon, they decide to find out what happened and why. As the story evolves, they become increasingly suspicious of one another and it becomes quite clear that, each in their own way, they have been anything but totally open with one another.

Director's comment

LOFT is basically a suspenseful, entertaining thriller, but it is also a dark story about deceit, betrayal and infidelity in all of its shapes and forms. It’s about people who re-draw the moral boundaries and become so entangled in this that not even crime will stop them. Friendship, love, fidelity; everything becomes blurred until there is precious little left – a striking trait of our society. Not coincidentally, the flm takes place in a world of material riches and yuppie-style arrogance. And the frightening thing is that the main characters are no ‘American Psychos’ by a long shot, but recognisable thirty-somethings with wives and sometimes even kids. Loft explores the oppressive materialism and cynicism of our times, often with a certain humorous touch, but always with the main objective to surprise the viewer or to possibly hold up a mirror.
