- Synopsis:
- Stefan (Stefan Gota), a Romanian construction worker living in Brussels, is on the verge of moving back home. He cooks up a big pot of soup with leftovers in his fridge, to hand out as a goodbye gift to friends and family. As he is ready to go, he meets a Belgian-Chinese young woman (Liyo Gong) who works in a little restaurant while preparing a doctorate on mosses. Her attention for the near-invisible stops him in his tracks. It's a film about connections in nature and in those of the people observing it, that has entranced anyone who has allowed the film to slowly take them over.

Quiet, engrossing slow burner - Here review by MD
Not recommended if you like fast, gabby action movies.
This is a slow and immersive look at alienation in a big city full of foreign workers, two of whom finally bump into each other and make a potential connection. No manufactured drama but lots of interactions which carry quite a lot of weight.
Beautifully shot with understated performances from the two leads.
Well worth your attention.
