Summer

A father and son travel together to the seclusion of a village in the mountains. There, the father tries—tirelessly, stubbornly, lovingly—to enter the mysterious world of his mute, autistic son. A world of rituals, of incomprehensibilities, of the child’s gaze into the infinity of a glass marble. A world of refusal. The father tries to break through the child’s seclusion, but the child’s isolation begins to spread to him. Waiting and silence, and the attempt to learn something about the child. Time stands still.

Early morning silence is broken by screeching tires as a helicopter bears down on a speeding vehicle. Taking a quick corner, the team tumbles out into the woods as their car pulls away. Now they must make their way through the thick of nature and thick gunfire to accomplish their mission. Not a single word of dialogue is spoken throughout the entire film. Instead, the music, sounds, images and deeply truthful acting turn a simple plot into an intense experience. Passion and intrigue keep building to the very end.
