A boy is confronted by a blue bird

Two loners walks in the night

After five failed attempts to go to the United States, 18-year-old Ramón decides to look for a friend’s aunt in Germany, but never finds her. With no papers or money, and without knowing the language, he barely survives living on the street until he meets Ruth, an old retired nurse who doesn’t speak Spanish. Beyond language barriers and prejudices, they discover that solidarity and humanity make life bearable.

A young aspiring suicide candidate. A salesman of stolen knives. An evangelical pastor with a mystic past. The stories of these characters intertwine in a cold, hopeless Germany.

Dans les jours les plus sombres de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, la basilique Saint-Pierre est enveloppée de l'ombre de la croix gammée. Mais alors même que le Führer l'encercle, le pape prépare une contre-offensive secrète. Le pontife Pie XII a été raillé pour son silence public sur l'Holocauste. Mais des preuves suggèrent que son silence était peut-être un subterfuge.

Boy meets girl.
