Synopsis

Spoiler shield

A movie about the possibility to be happy—or about the impossibility of the same. A young man interviews people on the street. He asks them about the substance of their lives in order to find answers for himself, but he cannot find any. Then, a young woman: after a couple of disappointments, she finds the happy side of life—she finds something like love. They meet each other…

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
