From his Beirut balcony, Ezzat spots a single light on a single balcony in the building opposite. From that moment, the moment of lockdown, a relationship begins across the empty space between the two buildings, through the air and with gestures. Events unfold after the owner of the shadow steps onto the balcony, confronting the peeper, sharing time, confusion, and desire with him. Meanwhile, a friendship develops between Ezzat and Tamer, an old acquaintance, a cautious friendship based on exchanging daily accounts of fleeting encounters, which soon evolve into more dangerous forms.
