Synopsis

A film in two parts: a first act filmed as an observational documentary in the world's largest flower market, followed by a fictional second act about a man, afflicted by a terminal illness, encountering a stranger in a train station bar. A radical reflection about time running out and what remains to be done, adapted from a play by Pirandello.

Critics' reviews

"A strange and intelligent film that doesn't look like any other and dominated by the captivating Puccino (...) [It mixes] the realism of anecdotes acutely observing daily human life with existentialist philosophical depth"

Fabien Lemercier: Cineuropa
