Due to the pandemic, Eve is forced to quarantine in her flat. At first, she keeps her positive attitude. She will keep working, she will take up drawing, she will exercise, and at night, she will watch all the films on her list with a glass of wine. Her only companion in this is her fish, swimming around in his bowl.

As she loses track of time, she starts observing her fish. Confined in his small fishbowl, forced to swim in rounds, eating the same food day in and day out, she starts feeling connected to the fish. She buys him fancy food, a bigger aquarium. She even tries talking to him. Most of the time, the fish does not respond, as would be expected. But at times, it does seem like the fish is trying to connect as well.

Loneliness is hard on Eve. The story follows her, balancing on the tricky edge, between going off onto the dark side and moments of comic relief.
