After 12 years of absence, Louis (), a writer, goes back to his hometown, planning on announcing his upcoming death to his family. As resentment soon rewrites the course of the afternoon, fits and feuds unfold, fuelled by loneliness and doubt, while all attempts of empathy are sabotaged by peoples incapacity to listen and love.
During the final stage of a terminal illness, Louis, a 34-year-old dramatist, after twelve years of absence and in spite of his fear, decides to visit his family and the home he left without looking back, intending to announce his impending death. Reluctant, yet, determined to fill the void and under the illusion that he still is the master of his life, Louis will desperately attempt to reconcile only to realise that even though the faces are familiar, in reality, they are all strangers to each other. Eventually, when the right words are achingly elusive, the silent presence of death will profoundly underline the missed opportunities, mortality, and most of all, everyones unwillingness to honestly listen and communicate. In the end, as the tension keeps building up, will Louis break free from the restraints of the past and finally find the courage to dig deep and unearth the burdensome secret?
