    16-year-old Hamudi has an eating disorder. He is forced by his mother to go with a strange man named Ali to search for his missing son. Ali only speaks Arabic, and his visa is still valid for three days. The only thing he has of his son is a recent photograph. During their joint search, Hamudi begins to admire Ali and, for the first time, to question the image of men modeled for him by his macho father.
