'LEAD-HEAVY'

Logline
Two friends try to lift an extremely heavy piano into their apartment.

Synopsis
Twenty-year-old Max lives with his best friend Rik. Rik is an energetic pianist, while Max is somewhat more reserved. The two friends try to lift an antique piano into their apartment, but it is much too heavy; they need help.
When two neighbors have been kind enough to carry the piano up the stairs, a new problem arises: the piano does not fit through the door.

Suddenly it is a different day, it is raining, and we see the piano standing inside the apartment, but the apartment is otherwise empty. Max, now 30 years old, and Rik slide the piano out of the room. Once outside, the boys say goodbye to the apartment and to each other.

Next, we return to 20-year-old Max and Rik, who are now tilting the piano. They try to get the piano through the door, and they succeed! With unprecedented joy and pride, they push the piano against the wall and hug each other.
