REVIEWS:

I fell in love with this character! So kind, so lost, so full of dreams... And the dog his best friend. The sunset scene? Pure magic.

Carmen Martinez Ruiz

A complex and heavy film about aging, loneliness, and limitations. Yet it is infused with friendship, loyalty, tenderness, and life. A surprising combination — just like in real life. Thank you!

Live Screenings Attendee

The film speaks about the isolation of elderly people used by the system but invisible. Yet it shows this with warmth and light.

Diego Lopez

Stylish visuals, unique color palette, and great editing. You can feel the filmmaker’s personal touch.

Jacob Carter

What a concept! Working inside an ATM? It’s like Kafka meets Pixar.

Maria Rodriguez Garcia

Such a sweet short! I laughed and almost teared up. The old man reminded me of my grandfather... And the ending — a dream come true!

Jennifer Wang

The Moneykeeper walks the line between absurdism and drama. The metaphor of working inside an ATM reflects someone trapped in a system of routine. It carries strong social commentary.
