Synopsis

Six people, one location. Grandma is dead. The family is gathering to prepare for the funeral and the reading of the will, but father doesn't show up. Everybody else, however, seems to have their own very special reason to be present, reasons that lead the main character towards insanity. TAXANDRIA is a surrealist, dramatic thriller with its own deliberate slow tempo - a very visual film that poses a series of questions, many of which it refuses to answer.
