03 Feb (Mon) - 15 Feb (Sat)
On a hot summer night, the water supply of a city building is cut off for no reason, but a song-like sound of water comes from the building, drawing five estranged people together – a middle-aged administrator investigating the cause of the water supply; a single woman who loses her memory of the day at night; an Arab roommate waiting to meet her boyfriend; a boyfriend who arrived quickly in an automobile but was unfortunately trapped in lift and a young man peeping into a neighbouring building. Following the sound of water, these five people embark on a journey of consciousness, shuttling between deserts, straits, Istanbul, royal palaces, and a brandy bottle. With intertwined dreams, the deep confusion of these five people is gradually resolved...
