Synopsis
In the hushed hills of Kemence, a small Hungarian village clinging to its rhythms, Door to Door follows Erika, a solitary caregiver whose daily walks trace the backroads between weathered homes. With each visit, she tends not just to bodies but to souls, offering a listening ear, a steady hand, and the rarest of gifts in an aging, isolated world: presence. An intimate portrait of quiet resilience, the film reveals the fragile threads that bind a disappearing way of life.
