A deep examination of how a relationship -supposed to be as intimate as that of two people linked by blood- comes to resemble that of two total strangers.

Selim, a young man adrift, is a transvestite and a prostitute who desperately longs for his father's love. Omar, his father, lives a secluded life of grief and has never recovered from the loss of his wife. Like two lonely ships, they pass silently without ever really connecting. Only destiny will bring father and son together... a little too late.—Bedjaoui, Amal
