The Suspended Step of the Stork

After delivering what is more a poetical announcement rather than a political speech, a politician leaves parliament and his home and disappears without a trace. A journalist, who is reporting on the immigrants and refugees stranded at the border, meets a man who looks very much like the missing politician. Despite his investigation into the matter and the meeting he arranges between the stranger and the politician’s French wife, the identity of the man remains a mystery. The woman doesn’t recognize him, while he seems unwilling even for a moment to give us any sign that he is not the missing politician…
