European premiere
An indigenous artist tries to revive his ancestral tradition of basket weaving with coconut leaves in an urban park by the Pacific Ocean. Despite being chased by security guards in a city of high rises who question his presence, he perseveres through rain and rejection. As he completes a stunning basket, an encounter with a homeless couple at the park brings a glimmer of hope for his art form, highlighting the struggle of maintaining traditional practices in a city that has forgotten its roots.
