Synopsis

It's summer and everything in Adela's life is dying: her father, her relationship, her courage to talk about it all. The heroes of the film hurt each others feelings, they wound each other, because they are cowards. They speak, but say nothing. They drink, take drugs and screw, all just to numb their emptiness. They act like idiots, not because they are, but because in their social cirle it's considered the norm. They all want to be happy, but don't know how. Adela is one of them, she is thirty years old and her father is dying.
