Plot
Daniel, who suffers from Tourette’s syndrome, goes to visit his grandmother who lives alone in a desert village. He tries to write but fails. When he enters a gay dating site in order to relieve the stress of writing a little, he encounters Saleh and they meet on the trunk of a dead tree near the village. Daniel is very afraid that Saleh will not be interested in him, but the fear and distance alternate with a gentle closeness. Daniel takes Saleh to his home and there the three characters connect for the rest of a day of closeness, warmth, and an accepting and simple stay, which finally manages to get Daniel to start writing.
