The Lips

2011 · 100 min

A quiet, observational drift through poverty and unfamiliar company, asking patience as it slowly lets strangers become a shared human landscape.

Overview
Three women travel to a distant place to do welfare work. They assist, listen, stay with the unprotected. An old hospital in ruins accommodates them. The imposed group life gets more complex as they start to know each other. The relationship with the others, the community, is also difficult. But, as days go by, they will start to melt into that human landscape surrounding them. To be part of the mystery of otherness.
