Synopsis

A widowed father, in his 50s with no job or house, is forced to live in a trailer. He gets involved in an unusual relationship with a sex worker. After his daughter gets out of an orphanage, they live together in the trailer. Together they face a very difficult question: can they find a better life together?The film skilfully dives in the life of a marginalised person residing in a trailer on the outskirts of the city, focusing on his unique relationship with his daughter who does not overwhelm him with her demands, but rather sympathize with him. Hence the struggle mixes life’s pressures and the difficult circumstances, using a beautiful cinematic language.
