When a man and a woman, who are living together, have their realities significantly altered following the Covid-19 pandemic, they find themselves facing important questions about their choices so far.

The former has lost his job, and yet he conceals the knowledge from his close friend (which the narrative does not call a live-in partner or girlfriend, but only a best friend). Thus begins an emotional separation between the two. While the woman remains unaware of it, the stress of being unemployed and dealing with financial troubles, soon comes to make its presence felt in his behaviour, which is not missed by her. It is in the resolution of this problem that the two reach an important realization regarding their equation, while also attempting a conversation for the viewer regarding one's approach to life, relationships and mental health.
