The film presents a room where the visual elements shift with changing light and sounds from outside, including hints of a construction site. Flower arrangements on a side table and the distant sound of a piano enhance the sensory experience. The narrative unfolds through these minimal elements, prompting viewers to engage with their own reflections and emotions.

Helena Wittmann's direction emphasizes a reduction of filmic components to their essentials, allowing for a meditative viewing experience. The constant temperature of 21.3 °C serves as a motif, grounding the film while everything else transforms around it. This unique approach makes 21.3 °C a noteworthy exploration of atmosphere and perception in contemporary cinema.
