We all have those much-needed days where we just need to shut out the world. The phone goes off, the TV goes on, and the only people we want to talk to are Ben, Jerry, and Robert Mondavi. But imagine if those occasional days of isolation were a permanent part of your existence. Meet David, the little boy who suffers from a bad case of obsessive compulsive disorder and lives in his bathroom. His mother can only feed him what will fit under the door; so with a steady diet of pancakes, David has all he needs in the small, tiled world he’s created. That is, until a young girl’s path crosses his bathroom—and she shows David that there might be something outside worth opening the door for.
