Zdenko (81) takes care of his wife Marija (75), who suffers from Alzheimer's disease. Their apartment gradually becomes a secluded world in which everyday life falls apart along with Marija's memories. While Zdenko tries to maintain their routine, Marija increasingly loses track of where she is and who the man who lives with her is. Faced with his own limits, he struggles to come to terms that the disease has completely changed their life together. Zdenko tries to maintain a sense of normality, struggling with his own doubts and accepting that the person he has spent his entire life with no longer shares the same reality as he does.
