About the film

An 11-year-old boy with unusual powers lives with his uncle in a Lebanesevillage where warplanes are daily noise. As his uncle tries to make him seem “normal,” the boy secretly tests an ability he barely understands. When he accidentally causes two warplanes to crash, what was hidden becomes impossible to control.
