Everything is born with a riddle. A riddle with a very simple answer, but for many people the answer is not so obvious. Why?
Synopsis
Everything is born with a riddle. A riddle with a very simple answer, but for many people the answer is not so obvious. Why?
The directors start from a well-known riddle: “A father and his son are in a car accident and the father dies. The son is in a very serious condition and the greatest expert in surgery must operate on him. When the expert arrives, they says 'I can't operate on him because he is my son.'” Guess: Who is the eminence?
