We wander, dreamlike, gently guided by a Scheherazade-esque narrator.

Simultaneously an ode and a lament, this film presents a kaleidoscope of all that is eternally human, an infinite story of the vulnerability of existence.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/youtu.be\/i8cddixI6e0<\/p>","bs_screenings":[{"Screening":{"bs_id":"295391","subtitles":"","audio_in_headphones":"","bs_imported_date":"","bs_imported_time":""}},{"Screening":{"bs_id":"295539","subtitles":"","audio_in_headphones":"","bs_imported_date":"","bs_imported_time":""}}],"bs_imported_date_0":"","bs_imported_time_0":"","bs_imported_date_1":"","bs_imported_time_1":"","bs_imported_date_2":null,"bs_imported_time_2":null,"sorttime":"","sortdate":"","bs_id0":"295391","bs_id1":"295539","bs_id2":null,"custom_additional_content_small":null,"link":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/en\/news\/roja-andersona-dieviska-komedija-par-dzives-tragikomisko-dabu\/","original_title":null,"director":null,"country":null,"year":null,"festival_year":null,"runtime":null,"languages":null,"sub_languages":null,"description":null,"images":null,"in_cinemas":null,"on_demand":null,"not_available":null,"rights_expiry_date":null,"online_only":null,"poster":null,"price":null,"eyelet_embed":null,"available_until":null,"geographical_availability":null,"synopsis_preview":null,"trailer_url":null,"custom_supporter_title":null,"supporter":null,"available":null,"geographical_availability_custom_short":null,"geographical_availability_custom_long":null,"subtitle_language_online":null,"cinesend_id":null,"online_price":null,"online_bs_id":null}
