Tripoli, North Lebanon. At 64, Maha has just taken her retire­ment from teach­ing. This new life puts her in the face of her lone­li­ness as a divorced woman, whose chil­dren have left their home to live abroad for years now. The sole com­pa­ny of her faith­ful neigh­bors is no longer enough for Maha to fight the ter­ri­ble feel­ing of empti­ness and bore­dom in which she now finds her­self. But had not she always dreamed of being an astro­naut? And what if she lets her­self drift to this promise of escape?
