A FILM BY HANNA HOVITIE
Hungary, Belgium, Portugal, Finland | 17' | 2019 | DOCUMENTARY
In peaceful swampland, a solitary man crawls through long grass, wading carefully through the water. Unable to fit in with the world of humans, he prefers to spend his time with cold-blooded reptiles, caring for them with extraordinary empathy. Solitude is his way of survival but also his biggest enemy.
