Synopsis
Two young women meet to divide the ashes of a man they both loved. His mysterious death has left deep scars. When one of them pulls out a sanitary bag to keep her share of the ashes in, the already tense situation escalates.
As they argue, suppressed pain and long-kept secrets break through. In the process, the two women also rediscover traces of an almost forgotten friendship – and the deep bond and betrayal that shaped their shared past.
