The present day in an unspecified location. War rages in the distance. It could be any war, since there’s always a war raging somewhere. In a run-down apartement, a shabby, aging couple tear one another apart, or rather they endlessly repeat the same discussions that will end only with their death. Insults, obscenities, words that seem incoherent unless they are part of an absurd logic – just a way of passing time until death comes.
