The second story of a businessman waiting for a button maker birth of his child, when the time came his wife died of her child-like monsters. His son has a lot of diseases like the grandfather who was 80 years old. He threw the child in a place of retirement. A woman who worked in places that care for him until he was 17 years old. As the child's life upside down, when he was 5 years old he had a body like aged 80 years and the contrary when he was 80 years old he had a body like a baby. Love, suffering, war, problems he lived like other normal human being it.




Director David Fincher said, "It’s dark, it’s romantic, and it also deals with mortality in a pretty unflattering way."

With an interesting story and the actors and actresses who recognized them skills. You all should watch this movie! although make a bit boring because the story is long-winded =D
