Film Synopsis

Barış is a theatre actor. Theatres are closed during the peak of the covid pandemic. To earn his living, Barış starts to work as a carrier for a newly established delivery service application. One day, as he delivers an order, the door is opened by his still beloved ex-girlfriend Duygu. Duygu and his new boyfriend Berk owned a dance school but they had to close it down due to the pandemic. Having problems with Berk, Duygu has already packed up to leave the house and comes across to Barış at her last night in the city. As the world is crossing a threshold because of the pandemic, Duygu and Barış sit down at the door’s threshold, and face with emotions long stuck on the threshold.
