In Budapest, Mihály lives alone in his house surrounded by trees. He seems to suffer from loneliness. For unclear reasons, his beloved daughter, designer and jeweller Réka Fekete, has refused to see him for years. Filmmaker Eneos Çarka discreetly captures the bonds of the past that have shaped them and that still haunt this place (The Silence of The Banana Trees). German director Elena Alvarez Lutz accompanies Australian jewellery designer Helen Britton on her mental and physical wanderingss. An inquisitive focus guides their journey, from Australia to Germany. Portrait of a fascinating huntress coming from elsewhere (Hunter from Elsewhere).
Followed by a talk with Elena Alvarez Lutz, translated in French.
