A well-known architect’s trip to the Paris Airport takes an unexpected turn when a young woman forces him to listen to her story. What seems to be a flirtatious encounter changes in time, although the time line is interrupted, to become a provocative and threatening relationship. Ghosts from the past and sense of guilt resurface more easily in a non-place such as an airport and during a conversation with a stranger. The film seems to tell us that there is no such thing as fate. There is a cosmic order; from this idea comes the title of the novel on which the film is based. The threads of the plot are weaved together to then be undone and become visible.

Benedetta Carlini’s process to become a nun starts as a little girl in Pescia, in Tuscany. Her repeated mystic visions and stigmata win her popularity within her community. However, once she enters the convent, her passionate relationship with Bartolomea, who is there to find shelter from her abusive father, will change her future, and her popularity within the community starts to waver. Good and evil, paradise and hell coexist in the controversial figure of the nun, who towers over an incredibly spectacular story, which the Dutch director spectacularises.

In a car, driving from Berlin to Switzerland through Italy and Greece, there are Martha, her father Kurt, and her best friend Betty. The reason for the trip is the assisted suicide of Kurt, a terminally ill man. United by the same, painful destination, each of them deals with their own personal trip made of fear, concern and solitude. It is a road movie, not too dramatic, and a therapeutic itinerary also for the audience.
