Filippo is a retired teacher marked by pain over the loss of his wife. The man is determined to take his life, but someone knocks his door.

In a curious-looking old hospital, an elderly couple, Carlo and Clara, is waiting for their turn tenderly holding hands. There is a choice to be made, and the woman begins to hesitate. Only the words of the loving Carlo will be able to transform fear into courage. At one point the setting makes way for animation, suggested and overlapped by the words of Clara. It leads the listener to a deep reflection on life. The brief evocation of the magic of existence is imprinted in the deeply moved smile of the woman, certain that life on Earth is nothing but a stage of eternity.

The tragedy of our times as seen by those who'll have to learn to live the tomorrow.

Timo, the youngest of a Greek community of Funfair workers, will have to face the hardest winter together with his loved ones.
