🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a delicate balance between gentle comedy and heartfelt drama, relying on the purity of its protagonist's delusion to explore themes of belonging and otherness. It treats Arnold's quest not as madness, but as a different kind of logic.
What lingers after the final frame is a quiet warmth, the feeling of having witnessed a stubborn, beautiful dream that redefines home. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Hardi Sturm

With a soft blanket on a quiet afternoon, for a tender, offbeat escape.
