The Frog and the Water Der Frosch und das Wasser

  Thomas Stuber  |  Germany  |  2025

Buschi’s daily routine in an assisted living facility leaves no room for surprises. Seeking change, he seizes the chance to leave a group outing behind and joins a Japanese tour traveling through Germany. Having lived his entire life without speaking, Buschi forms a wordless friendship with Hideo—a man on a journey of his own—and the two create a bond that transcends language as they embark on an unexpected adventure.
