The short film becomes an engagement with the chaotic spirals the human mind can find itself in if it's left in isolation. The coronavirus pandemic has ensured that the protagonist of the story is quarantined at home for fourteen days. Amidst the apathy and indifference of his friends, and the emotional isolation along with a physical one, he finds himself struggling to make sense of this new lived reality.
