***Not recommended for children under 12 years old!***
Chris (Bart Harder) and Lluis (Carles Pullido) were once best friends and roommates. A decade later, the two men, both in their thirties, reunite and embark on a 600-kilometre trek through the Scottish Highlands. Following the hiking trails of the Western Highlands and Cape Wrath, they spend 30 days together in nature, hoping to rekindle their previous, strong friendship. The solitude and silence of the Scottish Highlands makes them face their own midlife crisis, the past and future of their friendship, and what it really means to stop and watch the smallest vibrations of nature. The film was surprisingly included in the shortlist of the European Film Academy in the category of best European films last year.

Bem Cinema
In January 2016, the 108-year-old Bem Cinema will reopen its doors to the public, in a new way never seen before in Hungary: as a cinema of cult and classic films (no harm!), or as the educated French say (if you know your English): as a "repertory cinema".
