A(R)MEN (“THE ARM”) is an absurd short film. It takes place in an odd universe where a terrible misfortune unleashes highly unlikely consequences.
Arne's life turns upside down when he loses his arm in a catastrophic accident. His new situation is filled with both emptiness and loss. Miraculously, his life takes an unexpected turn when a new arm grows out.
