After 9/11, his workplace takes on a new significance as they wash U.S. flags for free, processing six to seven daily. Amidst the routine, Aadid finds solace in his coworker Adela, who becomes his Josephine, and the two form a tender bond as they hand-wash flags, fold them, and dance together. As the sun rises, their companionship raises the question: will this friendship blossom into something more?
