Synopsis
Following his parents' divorce, Isaac, seventeen, lives alone with his mother. An introvert by nature, he passes the time by polishing his Samurai sword, listening to his walkman, and slipping into the apartments of absent strangers. His parents, Roos and Martin, meet regularly to keep a connection with one another. When Roos confides her concerns about Isaac, arguments ensue, as Martin seems to have little to no interest in his son's welfare.
