Summary

Fleeting encounters and glances exchanged, a mutual attraction that requires no words. Two lonely people who meet under unusual circumstances and in an unusual place. Leila works as a croupier at a hotel casino in a predominantly male environment; Camil books himself a room in the same hotel... A fragment in the life of a woman whose singular appearance prompts a myriad of questions; Leila, however, guards her privacy assiduously. A multi-layered story about mutual attraction, love, and the casino where, on this occasion, gambling isn't the main focus.
