A modest flower farmer goes to the hospital expecting a brief discussion of his test results, but instead he is admitted with no clear reason and told he must remain under observation for an indefinite period. As the days pass, he finds himself caught in a bewildering routine of endless examinations, medical consultations, and constant monitoring, forcing him to confront the unsettling uncertainty of his situation while his simple life on the farm hangs in limbo.
