Yussef, a Lebanese migrant, is forced to work at the petrol station on the night of his daughter’s piano recital. As he tries to listen to her play over the phone a group of aggressive boys pull up and insist he pump their tyres, he does so uneasily. But as her music drowns out the violence of the world he becomes distracted.
