After 12 years of absence, Louis, a terminally ill writer, returns to his hometown, planning on announcing his impending death to his family. As resentment soon rewrites the course of an afternoon, anger and tension unfold, fuelled by loneliness and doubt. All attempts at empathy are sabotaged by peoples incapacity to listen and love.
