Emil, an old man who doesn't believe in ghosts, and his best friend, Titi, live in a remote hamlet which could be heaven on Earth, where nothing is out of the ordinary. The story begins at the memorial held for the 40 days since the death of Smaranda, Emil's late wife. As the days pass, Emil realizes that Titi is starting to look as though his days are numbered. He tries to cheer him up, but to no avail. The reason is that, 40 days after her passing, Smaranda has started to haunt Titi, her lover. The story uses black humour and mystery to narrate the effort it takes to accept others in friendship or in love.

One summer night, Eric enters a house and steals the ashes of Pol, his recently deceased friend. That same night, Eric and his two best friends, Ona and Marcel, set out on a journey by car to scatter the ashes. But the escapade will end up turning into a bubble that separates them from reality and increasingly distances them from the return home and from their initial intention. Although the three friends have felt death very close, they are incapable of understanding it. The loss will make them realise that it’s impossible to go back to being the way they were before, since their friend’s death will leave an indelible mark on their lives. Debut film.
