Opening movie
“‘Be with me’ is made up of three stories woven around love, hope and fate. Although the main characters come from different backgrounds, they all dream about living with the love of their lives. The first story deals with an aging shopkeeper faced with solitude. Just when he is about to completely give up hope, he comes upon an autobiography which changes his life. The second story describes the mundane life of a fifty-year-old security officer who has two loves in his life : gastronomy and a woman, a highly ambitious executive who works in the same building as he does. If he devotes himself fervently to his first passion, he can, alas, only admire the second from afar ! He decides to cross this gap by writing her a letter. The third story is the bitter-sweet chronicle of a teenage idyll between two young girls. Without knowing each other, these different people will find themselves on the same set which tackles the themes of love, tragedy and redemption.” Eric Khoo
