Abdulaal, who fled from Sudan, attends special sessions across the Netherlands where groups of Dutch people can ask him anything. This yields some painful, enlightening and interesting questions and answers.
Abdulaal, who fled from Sudan, plays sports with friends, does his daily groceries and eats with relatives, before putting on his smart clothes for what he himself calls the Ask me anything sessions. By invitation, Abdulaal calls at for example Rotary meetings, where club members can ask him anything they want to know. During various evenings, concisely cross-edited in this debut documentary, numerous painful, ill-informed, but also unusual questions are asked that confront us with how we deal with 'the other'.
