Aya waits for her husband in the airport’s arrival hall, but following an innocent mix-up, finds herself picking up a complete stranger instead.
An immediate sense of intimacy sparks between the two, but ends abruptly when the man disappears, leaving Aya with a key to his hotel room and a yearning that perhaps only a complete stranger can fulfill.

Based on the Oscar-nominated short film "AYA".
