Stikliniai drambliai

A six-year-old girl with the burden of an untold secret returns to the night of her grandmother’s departure, hoping to change the past and save her from death.

A six-year-old girl Laura revisits her memories of the last evening spent with her grandmother Marcele. At that time the girl broke the glass elephant figurine and kept it as a secret from the grandmother. Laura thinks that this untold secret was the reason for Marcele's departure later that night. While walking in her memories of that evening, Laura tries to change the past and save her grandmother. However she’s only able to notice the new mysterious details that lead our protagonist to the surrealistic desert, where the giant broken elephant comes to life and takes the grandmother away. After this mysterious journey Laura discovers that it’s impossible to change the past, but she can choose what to do with the present.
