The end is the present, and the past is the whole series of events that led to it. An ex-couple reunites in a bar in a city after many years. There, the present will unfold, they will settle old scores, and they will mock their tragicomic history, once again putting their feelings to the test. At times, they seem to be immersed in a game that only they know. The fragments reconstruct the history that they both destroyed but have not forgotten. Silence, tears, a dream, nothing more.
