Synopsis:

Thomas, a former doctor, a widower, lives alone in a basement apartment in Helsinki. His routine becomes even more limited when his misanthropic brother dies, reducing Thomas' human contact to practically nil. As with many seniors, he's basically invisible to passersby, though Thomas in particular avoids engaging with those around him. When he runs into his estranged daughter Marie, he tries to create a bridge.

Thomas is an elderly man who lives a quiet and solitary life, until a fortuitous encounter forces him to re-examine choices made thirty years ago.

Forgiveness, compassion and atonement are examined through the story of Thomas, an elderly widower who is forced to face his past.
