A young man of Chinese-Cambodian descent dies, leaving behind his isolated mother and his lover of four years. Though the two don't share a language, they grow close through their grief.
Language barriers dissolve into a quiet, tactile intimacy as two grieving strangers find common ground through shared silence and ritual. This tender character study sidesteps heavy melodrama to find beauty in the small, unspoken gestures of connection.
