Fettah , professeur de musique, non voyant, et Habiba une de ses étudiante se retrouvent confinés , dans l’appartement de Fettah durant la pandémie . Au -delà du désespoir et de la frustration, une connivence puis une attirance mutuelle va naitre entre ces deux êtres sensibles et perdus. Ils vont partager leurs souvenirs, leurs espoirs et surtout des moments privilégiés de musique. Il en naitra un amour. Un amour confiné jusque-là.
