Synopsis
In a nouveau riche residential area, a doctor is approached by a woman named Vera, who begs him to protect her from her drunken boyfriend. A scuffle ensues and the doctor unintentionally kills Vera's partner. Since Vera has been living in the villa illegally, she refuses to allow the doctor to inform the militia. They decide to hide the dead body in the wardrobe. The next day, Vera wanders about the city with a suitcase containing her dead boyfriend's body. Looking to dispose of the body, it transpires that the supposed 'corpse' has merely fallen into a deep, lethargic sleep.
