The Last Church Bells, 2017, short film, Macedonia, 13'
director Nikolce Popovski 
 
An old man, the only occupant of a deserted village, goes to church every day in the morning, not only to light a candle and say hispray, but to communicate with his friends, the last remaining occupant of the other village. They do it in a rather unusual way. They are having their conversation via church bells. But, one day the old man is extremely disturbed by the fact that the bell from the other village remains silent. He decided to go to the other village where he finds his friend dead. He buries him and gets back to his everyday life. After a while, the old man is being disturbed again when the usual silence is being broken by the bell from the other village. Actually, some mountain bikers are hitting the church bell while they make some selfies. The old man quickly runs towards the other village, hoping to find someone to communicate. But, regarding his age, a stroke hits him on the way so he drops dead on the road. Later, the biker finds the dead old man, but instead of calling an ambulance or taking care of the body, they make some more selfies with the dead man.
