Ari, a 27-year-old trainee teacher, collapses during a visit from the school inspector. Angry with him for being a failure, Ari’s father throws him out of the house. Emotionally raw and alone in the city, Ari reluctantly forces himself to rekindle relationships with old friends. As memories of the past few months ebb and flow, Ari gradually realises that other people are not doing as well as he imagined, and that perhaps he has been sleepwalking through his own life.
