Ernest Samson is trapped by a rare condition that causes him to speak in a foreign accent. Alienated by his fellow elderly residents, he finds the familiar landscape of home has been altered and his precious memories corrupted.
His saviour comes in the unlikely form of Amir, a young Muslim care worker who reveals an unexpected affinity with Ernest’s situation and offers him a key to the peace he so desires.
“I live my whole life in this place. I know this town and the forest better than the veins on the back of my hand, and yet, I am feeling, here, I don’t belong.”
