No one appreciates the detail of being alive more than the dead. In Lisbon, a city that plays games, a man, John, encounters his mother sitting on a park bench. She laughs with the impudence of a seventeen-year-old schoolgirl. She has been dead fifteen years.

As it passes frontiers and time-zones, Here is Where We Meet is beautiful, playful and unexpected.
