Inspired by Bedros Horasangian's series of short stories, the film focuses on the dissolution of a couple, seen from two perspectives. Episodes from the married life of a playwright mingle with their dramatized version, rehearsed on scene by a couple of actors, thus amplifying the communication issues and the distance between the partners. Featuring a simple and efficient mise-en-scéne, the film is built like a feminine monologue in two voices, counterpointed by the helpless, stubborn silence in which the two protagonists retreat.
