Synopsis

Some people dream about America, others about a hut in Canada. In my family, we dream about Spain, the only country which did not arrest Jewish nationals during the war. An anti-movie of family, withoutlooking at the beginning, without pilgrimage to the graves of ancestors, which mixes, in a comic whim, unleavened bread and bullfighting, suitcases always ready, westerns, fried squids. The reverse angle of the movie, it is the East and Poland, evoked through the Spanish landscapes (and Canadians) that the central figure travels through, a sort of avatar of Monsieur Hulot.

Honeymoon, by Alkis Papastathopoulos

After a traumatising event involving the cops, Fay is leaving Greece for good. Sandra accompanies her to the bus station, taking this time as a chance to say goodbye. As they are travelling by bus across the country, a transphobic attack by two co-passengers leaves them stranded on a highway in the middle of nowhere.
