On a stormy night in early 2021, a beached whale washes ashore at Nitzanim Beach, Israel. The film documents the whale’s burial and features phone calls between the director and the witnesses: a photographer, a news reporter, and a Bedouin tractor driver. The encounter with the whale’s corpse evokes the witnesses' thoughts about the dialogue between death and life.
