Director’s statement:
‘​​​​​​​I had this thought: what if the people we keep in psychiatric institutions and call "crazy" aren't actually like that? What if they're aliens who just don't realize it — and are simply very different from us?’
Description:
In a small village, a hard-of-hearing fool awaits contact with the stars.

In a quiet village live ordinary people —except for the local fool, who spends his days in a homemade house built from discarded materials. He draws strange circles in the fields and tries endlessly to catch radio waves, hoping to reach other worlds. The villagers mock his odd hobbies, yet everything changes when the one he has long called for finally appears: an alien woman named Yana, bringing with her a strange silence and the promise of a life beyond the ordinary.
