A character-driven romance about two strangers forced into proximity in an isolated landscape, where initial friction gradually transforms into genuine connection and understanding.

Sandy, a geologist, finds herself stuck on a field trip to the Pilbara desert with a Japanese man she finds inscrutable, annoying and decidedly arrogant. Hiromitsu's view of her is not much better. Things go from bad to worse when they become stranded in one of the most remote regions on Earth.
