Iraqi Airways has been grounded since 1990 due to the embargo against Iraq. However, ten years on, the Iraqi government continues to pay rent for its abandoned office. Everything has simply been left behind. Old IBM computers, two small model airplanes, a black and white photo of Saddam Hussein, with a layer of dust on everything. In this film, neighbours are interviewed and passers-by questioned. The result is a projection of fantasies. Everyone has they own perception of the place, the people who worked there and the reason for the closure, but no one knows exactly what happened.
