Ashraf’s main solace is the soothing sea whenever the sun sets and softens its rays. One day, on his way to the villa, a sadistic police officer harasses him and takes away his residence permit. Retrieving his precious papers turns into a bureaucratic nightmare as lonely and feverish Ashraf starts sensing a menacing presence, a shadow moving closer and closer...
