Stille Freundin plot
The botanical garden of a medieval university town in Germany is home to a centuries-old and majestic tree. Over the years, it has been a silent witness to man and his activities. In the year 1908, 1972 and 2020, a story is told that was determined by the surrounding nature. The relationship between man and flora is illuminated by this. In addition, a famous neurologist from Hong Kong finds his way to that same university.

If you enjoy staring at a flower or a tree for 150 minutes, then this might be for you after all. It follows three scientists working or studying at the same university in different eras. In the modern story, neurologist Tony [Tony Leung Chi-wai] investigates the neurological activity of trees. In the early 70s, Hannes [Enzo Brumm] helps a fellow student [Marlene Burrouw] with an experiment designed to demonstrate whether flowers can form emotional attachments to humans. Sometime around the beginning of the 20th century, the university's first female student [Luna Wedler] discovers photography as a means to study flora. There are some nice shots here and there, but there is hardly any story, coherence, or anything interesting at all. Arthouse at its narrowest.
