This short film is a contemplation of life through juxtaposition as seen through the eyes a displaced individual. Torn between the life left behind and the life currently lived, the banalities of everyday life become pronounced until the reverie comes to a halting stop, leaving behind a possibility that life is not a question of where but a question of how.
