This personal documentary - or a documentary disguised as fiction? - is a sublime attempt by the maker to give her own family memories. The starting point is the mysterious execution of her grandfather in 1940. About the fragility of life and the cruel secondary effects of age.

In a suburban landscape, the lives of several families interlace with loss, despair and personal crisis. Esther Gold has lost focus on all but caring for her comatose son, Paul, and neglects her daughter and husband. Lawyer Jim Train is devoted to his career, not his family. Helen Christianson wants to find a new spark in life, while Annette Jennings tries to rebuild hers.
