Synopsis
A forty-something man takes a car to the Beirut International Airport. He walks into the middle of the airport hustle and pauses. Then, he suddenly turns around, rents a car and drives off into the wintery landscape of Lebanon's countryside. He arrives at a hotel that appears to be empty due to the off-season. Locking himself in his room, he proceeds to close the windows and shutters so as to create a state of near-total isolation. Days pass as the man experiences an intense emotional journey, all the while remaining almost mute.
