A cheerful postman endeavours to deliver an ever increasing workload when a terrifying encounter with a pigeon starts a chain reaction with life altering consequences.
Filmed in Black & White, Fragile is inspired by the heroes of the silent movie era. It engages with levity themes that are as relevant today as in yesteryear.
