Neri Aluma, Hanan’s mother, is determined to reignite her son’s passion for life as he struggles with mental illness. Neri is a writer. Hanan, a musician, has been writing and singing since the age of 13. Through their creative work, they break down the walls of silence and concealment that separate the outside world from the storm within their home. Art allows them to engage in dialogue and create meaning and beauty within the chaos the entire family endures. Neri’s prose and Hanan’s music guide the film, giving voice to the pain of a family’s long struggle with mental illness.
