Dozens of migrants climb onto an overcrowded truck. Their goal: to escape to Europe. When they arrive after an exhausting journey, another brutal reality awaits them: the European treatment of refugees.

A Swiss patriot lives an orderly and satisfying life within his modest four walls. Everything seems harmonious until the day a foreigner moves in next door.

Maria, a Mexican migrant, is pregnant. Her husband Giorgio is sterile. She conceals the pregnancy from him out of fear he might suspect infidelity. Caught between doubt and longing, both seek tenderness elsewhere. Fascinated by the unknown, their feelings drive them into the depths of love. There, where only trust can prevent them from losing one another.

Love, war, and the myriad state of humanity and the world condensed into a visual summation that's a treat for the eyes.
