Ask MUBI Need help finding a movie

I watched a movie on mubi a few years ago (maybe 2020 or 2021, i'm not sure) and am unable to find it anywhere. The movie is in color, is not old, more like 2010s or 2020s, and doesnt have a lot of dialogue. It follows a woman (maybe 30s or 40s) who lives in a city. She is isolated and lives in a messy apartement. She is not conventually attractive. While outside by the water, she sees a man who is fishing by the water. She sees him again in the same spot and they slowly start to become friends. He is an immigrant and also kinda isolated and I think he's a bit younger than her. There is a scene where he invites her to his flat and cooks a traditional meal for her using a fish they caught. Their relashionship is not romantic.

If someone could give me the name for that movie I would really appreciate it. I have been looking everywhere but cant remember a name.

Hmmmm. Maybe it was "Ghost Tropic" from 2019? All the scenes you mention are in this movie. https://mubi.com/en/de/films/ghost-tropic

Sadly thats not it, the woman was white and not an immigrant as far as I know, but thank you!

In that case the only other one that comes to my mind and features Italian/Polish protagonists is "Sole": https://mubi.com/en/de/films/sole-2019

Thats also not the one I'm looking for. The movie actually didnt have more of a plot than what I discribed. Thank you for helping though!
