As the only carer for his grandson, the dying Carturan, a 60-year-old man, tries to find him a home while he prepares his own funeral in his village. Long shots, idyllic scenery, a tour of ceilings, walls and obstacles of all types pale in front of Carturan's quest to tame death by an odd ceremony to leave everything in order and make peace with the world and all the limitations of humankind. The film is a tranquil silent reflection on the transience of life.
