Theatre director Givi and his friends accidentally end up witnessing a murder, which they try to prevent, but, alas, to no avail. As a consequence, Givi is left wrestling with his guilty conscience and sense of morality. He interprets his failure as a sign of ethical apathy and stops production of his current play in the conviction that he no longer has the right to share his visions with society. Lana Gogoberidze's fifth film is a nuanced treatment of the (im)possibility of moral integrity in art.
