A man attempts to work his way toward the source of the violence he suffered in his youth at the hands of his father.
He fears he may have inherited this violence within himself. Thus ensues an encounter with Omi Mouna, the man's 100-year-old great-grandmother, who holds the scars of this tale hidden in the fog of her memory.
