Peaceful Remission

Animation director Jonathan Djob Nkondo tells a melancholy tale of life in a space-faring future. Set in a sleek satellite home orbiting Earth, Peaceful Remission follows elderly couple Marlène and Jerry Nomo, whose quiet life is disrupted by a mysterious nighttime rumble. But the real tension lies not in the noise but in Marlènes simmering frustration with Jerrys passivity. The incident becomes a catalyst for emotional confrontation, revealing the cracks in their long-standing relationship. A surreal, contemplative work about conjugal fatigue, silent devotion, and the illusion of tranquility.
