| Beautifully light look into what a local gets and what a migrant gets in a seeming deal.
The lightness of the telling is beautiful. So many small cinematic touches including him practicing his french as he walks the streets. The guilt and fear felt by the people in the train. And anger felt by his friend Yaron. And what finally happens to him. The way stories are sold, without letting it feel like a sale and then given back, with generosity drying up without it feeling like it was ever a trade. That trenchcoat in the color of dijon mustard.

Lovely.
