Dir: Tom Geens / Belgium / 2006
A woman spots the same old man going through bins on a number of occasions. Every time her face fills with utmost compassion. One day she decides to follow him and ends up trapped in his house. How much of her compassion was truly compassion?

  • she just caused the man alot of trouble.

  • Great movie! It showed how the woman's desire to be compassionate was skewed by her preconceptions about the man. It led her to ultimately hide from the very person who could rescue her. She ends up killing herself as she lashes out in desperation and fear. After her death, the man is arrested, because it LOOKED like he had killed her.

  • Why is she freaking out after she sees the tattoo on his arm? Also what is that metal object that makes him cry? Is it the same design as the tattoo? Why is she begging all day? Is that her job?

  • Strange,but not bad in my opinion. I managed to feel more "compassion" for the man in the end,than i felt for the woman.

  • you could totally break down a wooden door like that

  • a very slow movie i want to see it but i can't as it is very very very slow

  • It should have been called:

    Curiosity killed the cat!

  • All she had to do...ALL SHE HAD TO DO....was say, "Excuse me sir, you dropped this."...THAT'S IT!

  • How exactly does she die?

    From what i can percieve from it, is that she fell backwards onto a nail or something similar.

  • She was never really being compassionate. The intention is what determines compassion not the act. Her actions proved otherwise. She was sympathetic initially but perhaps her pride is what got her killed. Still, a very well told story with good direction and acting.

  • ridiculous plot, unless the woman had some mental problem
