At the end of their centuries-long lives, two friends meet again. One is dissolving into thin air, the other has grown a beak and is covered in feathers. Together they look back. What was of value?

In a foggy marsh, a frog tells about his life: how he was reborn time and again, starting as a tadpole over and over. Until something went wrong: he ‘got lost’ and woke up in the body of an adult man. From this moment, the life of this Allard (48) gradually begins to change: he loses grip of his familiar world. The frog inside wants to go back home, to the marsh he knows so well. In this imaginative yet realistically shot film, the frog’s voice is heard on the voice-over.
