THE VEGETABLE GARDEN

Synopsis

Enric, a catalan octogenarian, wanders along a regional highway in search of tomatoes, while hitchhiking he comes across Ricard, a middle-aged man who has returned to live in the old town of his partner's grandparents, seeking to get away from the big city. The initial differences are left behind through the process to the intimacy of two generations so far apart, but united by compassion.
