An aspiring violinist and a professional translator live parallel lives and appear to be perfect for each other, but somehow fate seems to keep them apart. Living in different units of the same apartment building, they never meet, because when they leave, one turns left, and one turns right.

VIBE

A tender, melancholic urban fairy tale about the near misses of fate. It's a gentle, wistful exploration of loneliness and the quiet hope that the right person might be just around the corner, even if you always turn the wrong way.
