Wilbur Wants To Kill Himself
The good-hearted Harbour has spent his whole life trying to take care of his motherless and suicidal little brother, Wilbur. The brothers are inseparable. When in their thirties, they lose their father and inherit his second-hand bookshop. One day Alice enters the shop with her young daughter, Mary. Alice is a cleaning lady at the nearby hospital and she sells the books that the patients leave behind. Harbour falls in love with Alice and soon all four of them are closely intertwined in each other's lives - and perhaps even deaths. From the director of "Italian For Beginners". In English.
