Tormented by guilt, a wealthy old man (Toni Garrani) is visited by a stranger (Stefano Fresi) with whom he begins a kind of chess game: an unconscious trick to reckon with the obsession that he has plunged since he got involved in the life of a young woman (Elena Arvigo). After the death of her lover, left alone to fight against unemployment and job insecurity, the woman refuses any help from the old man: without any real human contact, his offerings become even more obsessive and his generosity maybe hides only the presumption of control her life.
