An Apartment house with 5 different family members struggling of noises between the floors. Is it possible to be blooming peace in there? The material of noise between floors, which is emerging as a social problem, is expressed as a fable with a fairy imagination.
 

Program Note

On a leisurely Sunday, with drilling noises from downstairs and a baby crying upstairs, the mature writer just can’t work. He bangs the ceiling with his stick, but the noise of a vacuum cleaner drowns it out. This stop motion animation, Saturday’s Apartment deals with noise complaints in a lovely and touching way.
