Synopsis

The story begins at the death of a man, as he is “crossing to the other side” and his life flashes before his
eyes. The film tells the story of a friendship between a man and a fly. The beginning is happy and friendly,
but in the later years of their life, the fly keeps to herself more than the man. The third protagonist is Christ.
Although only a wooden sculpture hanging on the wall, the man looks to him more and more.
