No One Writes to the Colonel

A quietly devastating portrait of an aging man clinging to a futile ritual while grieving his son, exploring dignity, denial, and the weight of unfulfilled promises.

Every Friday, the Colonel puts on his only suit and goes to the dock to await a letter announcing the arrival of his pension. But the townsfolk all know that this pension will never come. His wife also knows it, and even he knows it. But he is still waiting, living with the pain of the death of his son.
