SYNOPSIS

On the last day of his life, Marco confronts the ghosts of his past.

Visions of an unknown world dissolve into reality, drawing him into a liminal space between life and death.
Within this metaphysical dimension, he realizes that the walls he built to protect his vulnerability have ultimately driven away the woman he loved.
