Salat is composed of several vignettes that are like snapshots of urban life, juxtaposed once again with images of love, friendship and everyday life. On kids eating ice cream, on Portuguese footballer Miklos Feher and other short elegies. A film maker asks himself: ‘How do I deal with pain? I eat it, I play it, I connect, I confess, I swing, I flail away.’
