The mad half hour refers to a condition usually indoor house cats experience once a day. They are about expanding energy in one concentrated burst that goes from 15 to 30 minutes, without any apparent reason. The Mad Half Hour is an offbeat comedy following Juan (30) who is going through a period similar to the one of these cats.

Six friends return to the big farmhouse in the middle of a subtropical landscape where their best friend Miguel spent his last days. While the sound of his recordings fills the house and gardens, they pack the things he left behind. Brzezicki's directorial début is a haunting sensorial journey through memories, images and sounds.
