Behind the closed curtains of an isolated villa by the sea, three characters give flesh to a cruel dilemna : how to live life when it becomes unbearable... Althought the film never leaves the interior of the villa, the outside world does enter and makes itself heard in many ways. Iranian society is present, off-screen : TV news, voices and police whistles in the night, a desactivated cell phone, a workman hesitant about compromising himself with the film maker... concrete signals that express the impossibility of rejecting the outside world.
