Have you ever had a déjà vu experience? Have you ever met a person you think you already know? For Nora and Aron, it's love at first sight when they meet in the subway one rainy day. A complete chance meeting, Nora says. Everything is predetermined, Aron says. But then, the young couple winds up in the middle of a bank robbery. Aron is shot by one of the masked robbers and dies in Nora's arms. Time stands still for Nora. She tries to numb her pain, spending a night with a stranger—Natan. He offers Nora support and stability. She has the odd feeling she already knows him, without realizing what they really share...
