Elderly but defiant, Bela has been placed in care facility by a son who believes Bela is incapable of living independently. Bela doesn’t like it at all and rebels against the care workers and schemes to escape. At this same facility he also meets Zoé, a troubled young woman who has been assigned to work there as part of her juvenile delinquent rehabilitation process. Both outsiders, they soon develop a friendship, so much so that Zoé decides to help Bela in his outlandish plans to escape. But it’s very risky for both, and will it work? Director Daniel Hever’s promising debut feature film is an uplifting story of friendship and boasts winning performances by László Szacsvay as Bela and Lilla Kizlinger as Zoé.

“A quiet, endlessly kind, and at the same time heartbreaking first film.”
