Quiet films about people who connect without much fuss. In Small, Slow But Steady, a deaf woman trains as a boxer while her club faces closure. All the Long Nights follows Misa, who has severe PMS, and a colleague with panic disorder at a small optics company. Two Seasons, Two Strangers won the Golden Leopard at Locarno: a summer by the sea and a winter in the mountains, each with a stranger.
