I caught up with it on the Karlovy Differ Movie Competition, earlier than it went on to display at TIFF, AFI Fest, NYFF, and others. Set in Brussels, the movie revolves round a possible love story between a Romanian development employee and a Belgian-Chinese language doctorate pupil of moss, who cross paths simply earlier than the previous is about to maneuver again residence. It is a very peaceable, calm, humble movie with some gradual moments that permit the story breathe. It permits the narrative to take its time, to let it construct in its personal slow-paced means, very similar to the moss that Shuxiu is finding out. Right here stars solely two individuals: Stefan Gota as Stefan and Liyo Gong as Shuxiu. I will suggest searching for out this movie if gradual cinema is your jam.
