Adapted from a poem by the director’s mother, "Baisure" in French can be translated as "Kissing Loaves,” the exact place where two loaves meet while in the oven, a specific zone of contact where the crust is softer because it is less baked. This film explores this tiny yet rich point of junction, a meeting between two beings, an entire world revealed.
