Plot

Emerging from the shadows of a five-year prison sentence, Leila finds new purpose in the world of the sightless. Yannick, a once-vibrant athlete, is trapped in a twilight world following a devastating car accident that took his sight. His only remaining competition lies in running, a sport demanding a seeing guide. Leila, once an elite sportswoman before her incarceration, steps into this role, becoming Yannick's eyes in a world he can no longer see. As Yannick struggles with the cloying sympathy of those around him, Leila's silence regarding her past provides a refreshing escape. Together, they find solace in the rigorous routine of training and the exhilarating thrill of racing, each stride a step towards rebuilding their fractured lives. Yet, the haunting echoes of their pasts refuse to be silenced, and the surge of present emotions threatens to throw their lives into chaos once more. Regardless, they must keep sprinting forward, each footfall a testament to their resilience, each breath a battle cry, as they race towards the finish line on their shared, straight path.
