Synopsis
Delusional and aimless, a solipsistic young man wanders the city, lost in his imagination. Over the course of his day, his monologue provides an unintentionally sarcastic exposé of the reality of being disconnected from family and friends. Solemn and quiet, he goes about his business with only the sound of his own voice in his head. The day passes from the noise of the world outside to the solitude of his home, where his hollow existence betrays the visions of his day.
