A film adaptation of A.B. Yehushua’s novel of the same title. The story is set in a derelict, suburban home where a father and son live. The father is an ageing poet who has put his pen down for good, whilst the son is living with a disability of sorts, wondering about the boundaries of what constitutes normalcy whilst trying to blaze his own unique, slow and lumbering trail.
