When Palestinian father Abou Yousef leaves for Gaza after living a decade in Norway, his daughter, Mai, begins to confront the emotional distance that has shaped their relationship. As she reflects on his prolonged absence during her childhood, caused by him being imprisoned for two decades in Israeli prisons, she struggles to understand the father who has only been present in fleeting moments. Abou Yousef returns to Norway with a collection of smuggled letters, written during his years of imprisonment, that reveal the pain of missing out on her life. Through these letters, and the emotional conversation that follows, father and daughter begin to bridge the gap between them, slowly reconciling the past and acknowledging the unspoken wounds, even if only in part.
