Neil is a young man who is afflicted with premature aging. He also suffers from intense agoraphobia and so his mother Kate has brought an entire building where Neil can roam free inside. Neil is tended by a psychologist Donna who tries to help him get over his fear of going outside. Kate has also been inspiring Neil to experiment with astral projection as a means of visiting the outside world and he has been having some success with this. Military officers then arrive and demand that Neil teach them the secrets of astral projection. When Neil refuses, they reveal that they paid for the building and instituted Donna there. While he sleeps, Neil is visited by a mystery woman who insists that he is her husband Alexander and that they lived together in Sarajevo before the war.
