French Fries

A love tale exploring the barriers that keep us from true human connection.
Marieke, who lost her father as a child, finds herself struggling with intimacy. As an adult, she becomes an observer of her neighbors' lives, orchestrating relationships from afar. But her world changes when she meets Leon, the cousin of the local fries vendor, who challenges her isolation and reshapes her journey towards connection.
