University of Amsterdam
Director: Pascale Simons.
The daughter of a mother who wants to die, a disabled
soccer player, a family man with a double life, a hip couple in their
thirties and a broken family with an autistic son.
They all live in one city. And in the next 24 hours , they will be
more connected than they think.
A painful and loving look at the complexity of loneliness in the
Netherlands. LOTUS is a rare cinematic experience that challenges
audiences to question their own loneliness and that of others. Diving
headfirst into the harsh individualistic reality of a big city, this
film investigates fear, loneliness and love from multiple
perspectives. No one seems safe in the battle for happiness. And no
one is immune to the hidden pain of individualism and anonymity that
causes loneliness and changes lives.
The lotus is a water plant that grows from the mud towards the light.
The lotus effect is the phenomenon that occurs when dirt lands on the
leaf of a Lotus: It won't stick. This self-cleaning feature is due to
the numerous small bumps on the leaf.
