Middle-aged health worker Amos takes care of mentally ill people. He’s a widower who
lives with his mentally-disabled son Yurik. One day while treating a patient, Amos meets
an illegal Thai immigrant named Bena. Rather than turn her in, Amos brings the quiet
young woman home. Bena helps Amos care for Yurik and she gradually becomes part
of their household. Mutual affection begins to develop between Amos and Bena, which
Yurik has a hard time accepting. The disabled young man starts to abuse Bena and she
