## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

The film stitches two eras together loosely, a survivor’s flashback and a romance that never quite marbles into words. After losing a friend to time’s caprice, a TV grunt replays their shared film-school reveries in soft-focus vinyl. In the end, the movie settles for the melancholy of almost, not the wound of silence.

**Mood tags**: foreign-gem, bittersweet, tender
