When his band is invited to play a concert in Europe, blind Lebanese musician Rabih has to apply for a passport for the first time. At the citizens registration office he learns, that his identity is a fake and his birth certificate has been lost during the Civil War in 1989. Against the wishes of his mother, who wants her shady brother to arrange everything bind the back of the official authorities, Rabih makes his way to his supposed birthplace. But instead of finding his birth certificate, he encounters only more and more inconsistencies on the search for his true origin.
In his multifaceted feature debut director Vatche Boulghourjian sends his young protagonist Rabih on an odyssey through a country that is still deeply divided decades after the Civil War.
