Kala azar describes of a place that cannot sustain animal life any longer. In a big city somewhere in the south of Europe, a couple takes care of dead animals and abandoned roadkill as an act to give meaning to their life. Kala azar is a meditation on the paradox of life-circles among beings of different species. A film about existence, on the boundaries between living and dead, human and non-human.
Living on the fringes of a barren, grim city, taciturn cremation workers Penelope and Dimitris pay house calls to people who have lost their beloved pets, offering them condolences and their usual comforting routine. Surrounded by loneliness and disintegration, the unusual employees do their best to reassure the grieving owners that theyll tend to their lifeless animals with respect, arranging the funeral they deserve. But in a world that seems to be falling apart, the boundaries between life and death are fragile. Can there be a spiritual connection between humans and animals?
