Plots(1)
Once a week Gabriel gets on a bus and drives across town to a bakery to wander on the border between the present and the past. The bakery used to be an orphanage and he was one of the lost souls stuck in it. Lonely and unsettled by any kind of human connection, he has created a life for himself that is nearly devoid of love and human interaction as the landlord of a seedy establishment. When one of his renters disappears, he fears for the worst. In his dreams he meets a little girl in the now empty apartment who is as shy and distressed as he himself. Again and again he returns to the scene of the possible crime and the girl, slowly developing a relationship built on a fragile semblance of trust. And while the police outside is looking for a murderer, Gabriel is now torn between his past and his present and has to choose between his dreams and reality. (Internationales Filmfest Oldenburg)
