Travelling, sneezing, writing and tweezing - Postcards From My Balcony follows blind writer Alex Bulmer when she returns from the UK in March 2020, as the pandemic first erupts. Sent into quarantine, feeling alone, she writes postcards - little big thoughts sent out to the world. With an impressionistic style, using sound, music, voice over and audio description embedded in the film, Postcards from my Balcony is a playful short story with an experimental feel.
