A coming-of-age journey through Morocco that explores the fragile, uncertain bond between a father and son amid exotic beauty and the possibility of both connection and loss.

When 17-year-old Ben visits his father Heinrich in Marrakech, it is the start of an adventurous journey through a foreign country with a picturesque charm and a rough beauty where everything appears possible — including the chance that father and son will lose each other for good, or find one another again.
