felixetmeira
Meira, a young Hasidic housewife and mother, and Félix, a hipster mourning the death of his father, unexpectedly meet at a local bakery in Montreal’s Mile End multiethnic district. What starts as an innocent friendship becomes more serious as the two strangers find comfort in one another.
