In the presence of the film crew

Strange storms of yellow dust fall on a town. Nacer, a forty-five-year-old journalist, is covering the phenomenon. As he observes the occurrence of supernatural events, his dead wife Fajar comes back as though nothing has happened to her. Faced with increasingly threatening storms, Nacer must uncover a haunting past from the dark years everyone wanted to forget.
