Set in Los Angeles in 1962, at the height of the Cuban missile crisis, is the story of a British college professor who dwells on the past and cannot see his future. We follow him through a single day, where a series of events and encounters ultimately lead him to decide if there is a meaning to life after the death of his long time partner, Jim.
Sun-drenched Los Angeles streets feel strangely hollow and clinical through a lens of profound, aching loneliness. This meticulously composed portrait captures the quiet fragility of a man navigating a single day of grief.
