Being inside looking out of a window takes on a different significance as soon as one can no longer leave the room in question. Inspired by the story "Des Vetters Eckfenster" by E.T.A. Hoffmann (1822), in which a writer confined to his flat tries to teach his cousin the "art of seeing" by means of his window, this animation was created as an examination of the lockdown during the Coronavirus pandemic.
