[2] It was selected as the Dutch entry for the Best International Feature Film at the 93rd Academy Awards, but it was not nominated.

[3] The story, laced with magic realism, follows headstrong 11-year-old girl Kenza who is determined to find her own path into adulthood, as she mourns her mom.

Kenza lives with her father Ouira and grandfather Weljo on a car wrecking yard in the countryside of Curaçao.

The two men are opposites that don’t particularly attract: Ouira is a determined and rational police officer, while Weljo identifies with the original inhabitants and spirituality of the island.

The down-to-earth and avoidant mentality of Ouira no longer offers her all that she needs and slowly she opens up to the more mystical and comforting traditions of her grandfather.
