Austrian premiere
At night three men are roaming through the center of a foreign city. In the darkness, they wander the streets unnoticed. The memories of their stories lead them on uncertain paths that sometimes seem to intersect. FORASTERO tells the story of people on the margins of society and traces estrangement and uncertainty between past and future.
