“HIATUS is a 20-minute experimental narrative film about a young woman who plays HIATUS, an on-line interactive ‘identity’ game. Propelled through action by her Go-Go cowgirl construct Wanda, and powered by a computer corset that stores her programs in a garden interface, Maid meets Wang, a powerful take-over artist. She must learn how to use the power of her ‘organic memory’ to block his expansion and preserve her freedom.” — E.B. 1999

The story of three characters who lead their lives as if they were running a store, day by day. Three inseparable characters who would not exist if they had not met each other, who make life impossible for themselves and turn their daily lives into a series of improbable numbers.
