The philosophical melodrama by Ildikó Enyedi transforms the university garden into a place of wonders, where the ginkgo tree takes on the role of a silent storyteller. Through its crown pass the fates of lovers, scholars, and dreamers from different eras, and the change of times and epochs becomes a subtle story about attention to each other and to the world around. Ildikó Enyedi's film revolves around what seems to be a simple image - an old ginkgo tree in the garden of Marburg University. It becomes a gathering point for three different stories stretched over a century, and in each, the viewer recognizes familiar feelings: shyness, love, confusion about the future, and a quiet hope that clings to the details of everyday life. In the first part, the viewer finds themselves at the beginning of the 20th century, when a girl enters the university, deciding to pursue science in a world where her choice is met with skepticism and distrust. Her path is not a loud victory, but a slow assertion of the right to think independently, to learn, and to work on par with men. Next to the heroine is the same garden, where every touch of the wind to the leaves seems to be her silent ally. Then the action shifts to the 1970s. A shy student, who seems to be interested in botany, is actually trying to figure himself out and his feelings. Awkward conversations, notes, and meetings between pairs of lectures come together to form a fragile story of growing up, in which the ginkgo in the university courtyard remains the stone foundation. Against its backdrop, romantic experiences seem both very personal and simultaneously part of a larger, endless cycle of life. The third novella takes us to the 21st century. A neurobiology professor from Hong Kong finds himself trapped on campus due to pandemic restrictions and the disappearance of familiar routes. The forced pause makes him listen to the silence, to his own thoughts, and to the space around. The hero rediscovers slow time, looks at the branches of the tree as a living archive of human stories, and wonders what will remain after each of us.
