Synopsis
Short film from Slovenia, European Region of Gastronomy awarded 2021
This is a story about tiny fragments.
A story of tiny fragments of childhood, small gifts, minute memories. A story about details, small dreams of a big heart, the simplicity of small loves.
This story is about a humble small-town boy in love with tiny pleasures. It speaks of people who value modesty; those who can appreciate the little things because they know that from little things, big things grow.
This story talks about THE VERY BEST of small pleasures.
