An interpreter. Totally cold and distant: very professional. Her position? In between: on one side, refugees exposing their suffering, on the other side, doctors, solicitors or psychiatrists, who know how to help them. And she herself can only decode words and relay information, filtering emotions and hiding all about herself. She knows how to swallow, filter and regurgitate. Until the arrival of an African whose charm dramatically arouses her. This meeting is going to stir up all the emotions she had kept hidden and to question her go-between role in the triangular communication. Another universe starts to rise to the surface.
Director: Adolf El Assal.
