Logline

A chance encounter on a suburban bus connects a guarded woman and a young soldier, revealing how quiet routines can open unexpected paths to intimacy and self recognition.

Synopsis

Every morning in the suburban city of Modi’in, Eva boards the same bus to work. She takes the same seat by the window. The ride follows a familiar route.

Over time, she notices Oz, a young soldier who boards the bus as well. A glance held a beat too long. A joke that lands. A pause before one of them gets off.

Days repeat. The routine settles.

Eva begins to arrive earlier. She changes seats. One morning, she wears lipstick. Another, she leaves the seat beside her empty.

They speak more. The silences shift.

One morning, Eva boards the bus and waits.

Oz does not get on.

The bus pulls away.
