Synopsis

A confirmed bachelor earns his living by reciting texts at all the funerals held in his village. He lives with his sister, a brother-in-law who is hardly ever there, a grandfather who is determined to commit suicide and a rather complicated nephew and niece ( the boy is a nuisance and the girl is deaf and dumb).
