One day, an old water pipe caused a ceiling leak. On this ceiling, toxic mushrooms of the order Polyporales grow. Sitting on the toilet, the lady of the house looks up and observes the magical and mysterious fungus, which is not an animal, nor a plant. The mushroom is the future, she thought.

LOVING IN BETWEEN

Between birth and death is the power to love and live. Politics, religious orders, social norms and cultural taboos control who we love and how we love. The right to love is controlled and regulated by how we live. The film is inspired by a poem by Langston Hughes and celebrates queer sexuality and loving.
