As their connection deepens, Shin vanishes, leaving Tao to question the reality of their relationship. Meanwhile, MELIH, having left Istanbul for Taipei, owns a noodle shop. One night, he receives an unexpected flower from the perpetually drunk YU-PING. He consequently dreams about the flower and Yu-ping. Melih decides to keep the flower and he begins to confide in the flower, recounting the tale of Tao and Shin. Through this, Melih confronts his struggles to form meaningful relationships.
Logline:
In Taipei’s dreamscape, Tao’s incomprehensible love for Shin drives her to create painful memories. Meanwhile, Melih, burdened with self-blame, longs to connect with the perpetually drunk Ping.
