Nothing seems unusual — just a breakup call between a boy and a girl. She refuses to accept it, denies the separation, and insists that everything can still be fixed. Step by step, she goes through the emotional phases of denial, guilt, and despair. In a moment of pain, she swallows pills and sends him a farewell video. Moments later, he calls back — their conversation continues between life and death. That night, she wakes up from stomach pain, hearing strange sounds. When a dark figure emerges from the bathroom and her boyfriend appears to comfort her, she realizes it’s not him — it’s death itself.
“Vanitas — Beyond Regret” is a psychological horror exploring the stages of denial and acceptance, where love and death intertwine.

Directed by Giorgi Avetisyan (USA)
