A young girl knocks on the door of an old lady’s house in the countryside looking for shelter. She has been roaming with her backpack, but it is not clear why. The old lady gives her somewhere to sleep, without asking any questions. The girl stays and they slowly grow closer together. Curious villagers are skilfully kept at a distance by the lady. Beautifully acted, subtle drama about trust and security.
