One winter night, Romeo, a wide-eyed orphan, unearths his father's body, drags it home, plunges it into a bathtub, and awakens him from the dead. Like a newborn, the father rediscovers his senses and movement, while Romeo tries his best to care for him and keep him by his side. Though these two men no longer belong to the same world, they both share a vulnerability impossible to conceal.
