Stefan, a Romanian construction worker living in Brussels, is about to return home to visit his mother, and maybe stay…longer. Using the leftovers from his fridge, he cooks up a big pot of soup and begins handing it out as farewell gifts to friends and family. But while waiting for his car to be fixed, he meets Shuxiu, a Belgian-Chinese woman preparing a doctorate on mosses. Her attention to the near-invisible stops him in his tracks. On the heels of Ghost Tropic, Bas Devos offers another Brussels city symphony. With a quiet grace that’s becoming a trademark, Devos captures both the longing of contemporary urban life and the potential for enchantment that still exists in spaces shared by strangers from different worlds.
