Synopsis
An elderly couple, together most of their lives, live in an apartment. Their daily routine runs like an old record player: slow and repetitive. The couple moves silently in strict, methodic choreography through their quiet little house. In a voice-over, we hear their thoughts and their memories. The woman is incurably ill and is preparing in silence for the inevitable farewell. Approaching death blows through the house, where daylight is shut out; where words are no longer able to express real meanings, and the presence of death makes every individual action between the elderly couple both important and final.
