Li Wei, who studied poetry in Paris, returned home from vacation to help his father renovate his family's holiday home by the lake, the decoration work was too heavy, and his father hired a decoration worker, Tariq, because Tariq was a Syrian refugee seeking political asylum, and his father did not like him at first, but did not dismiss him after learning that he was an architect and skilled in work.
The handsome Tarik could only speak English, and communication between his father and him required Levi's translator. Levi didn't like the boring and monotonous life in the countryside, but everything gradually became interesting because of Tariq's arrival. Li Wei took the initiative to decorate his house with Tariq, and apologized to Tariq because of his father's dissatisfaction, and the two gradually became acquainted.
His father left the house temporarily, and after Li Wei and Tari finished today's work together, they went to the lake to relax. Li Wei is a literary and artistic youth who likes poetry, and although Tariq, who studied architecture, does not understand poetry, he is willing to listen and understand, which makes Li Wei very happy, and the two people who talk happily enjoy a comfortable rest time.
After the "Candid Meet" sauna, Levi and Tariq listened to the romantic opera and drank beer while talking to each other about their recent situation, Tariq said that he was very lonely in Finland and wanted to travel to Paris, and Livy said that he could take Tariq around, which made Tariq very moved. Li Wei looked affectionately at Tariq, who was smiling with a low brow, and after Tariq looked at himself, the suppressed love suddenly exploded.
Taking advantage of his father's absence, Levi and Tariq freed themselves in this cozy holiday home, and after one night, Levi and Tariq began to secretly fall in love under their father's eyes. In the shadow of the trees and the sparkling beauty of the water, Livy and Tariq embraced each other in the reeds, freely releasing their feelings, relying on each other, feeling each other's temperature, and letting their lonely souls find their belonging.
The movie "Time in the Reeds" tells the story of Li Wei, who spent the summer vacation, and Tariq, a refugee decorator, who have a wonderful love affair in the picturesque Finnish countryside, and the relationship between the two faces many tests. Li Wei and Tariq had a spark when they met, and Li Wei took the initiative to talk and Tariq inadvertently peeked, making the emotional drama behind it very natural and seductive.
Compared with Levi's romanticism, Tariq is still very rational, one is a promising young man, the other is a political refugee who is displaced, destined not to go together, the two enjoy themselves in time, and in this short vacation time, they have an unforgettable memory.
In the film, it should not only be the entanglement between Levi and Tariq that touches people's hearts, the two are like confidants, and the relaxed and pleasant conversation is also very touching.
