Does a Snail dream of Home?

Surreal portrait of Eva, a former Hungarian nurse abandoned in a homeless shelter on the outskirts of Budapest. Her faith in coming back home with her family and the sweet memories she carries with her unfold an emotional story through an oneiric journey: she becomes an angel accompanied by snails, transient trains, and a thunderstorm. Is home just a roof or a safe place to dream in peace?
