Dust and Glitter
Michaela Copikova

The film is inspired by the city of San Francisco and its inhabitants. Dust and Glitter is a simple story about two people from different environments who live next to each other but never communicate directly. Magda, a young, naïve girl, astonished by the glitter of the city, yearns for friendship with Chihuahua, a small dog that embodies the posh life. Trevor is an older homeless man who has spent many years on the street, but now must fight to defend his territory against Hyena.
