Synopsis
Four very different people live in the same building, but avoid each other because of differences in how they live their lives, what they believe in, and where they come from. They would probably never exchange a word, but misfortune pushes them towards each other. Slowly, even painfully, they begin to open up and recognise the essential humanity in each of them.
