A honey-seller goes on a quest to find a mysterious, untraceable old lady.

synopsis

The search for Faby Books begins in a honey store in Ghent, when the ancient Fabienne van Lomberghen accidentally drops a photo from her childhood on the counter. The shopkeeper discovers that this lady is Faby Books, one of the founders of Ancienne Belgique. Saint Anthony, the patron saint of lost causes, is invoked to find her again. We look for her in all the other women the honey-seller meets: waiting for a bus, in love, walking, working, searching.
In een Gentse honingwinkel ontmoet Annelein Pompe, de regisseur van deze film, in 2016 een indrukwekkende vrouw: Fabienne van Lomberghen. Zij is niet alleen bijzonder door haar artiestenverleden als medeoprichter van de Ancienne Belgique in de jaren zestig en omdat ze de eerste vrouwelijke Hammondorganist is in Europa die platen opneemt. Nee, er was iets anders met deze vrouw aan de hand. Met behulp van de Heilige Antonius gaat de regisseur op zoek naar Fabienne om een film over haar te maken. Wat blijft is de filmische zoektocht waarin andere vrouwen haar plek tijdelijk innemen, wachtend op een bus, verliefd, wandelend, werkend, zoekend.
