Martin Santome - a man of fifty years old, widowed. Life has lost its meaning. Three adult children cannot become his support - they did not understand each other before. The only small outlet remains work. Once he looked at his young colleague Laura in a new way. Although she is suitable for him in her daughter (she is 24 years old), she unexpectedly fills his life with warmth and light. Happiness is brief. Laura dies of a heart attack. His affair was only a brief “truce” with life.
