  • Walter used to be somebody; somebody with power and purpose, motivated by his conviction of doing good. Now, suddenly, society is telling him he's no longer needed. In his mid-fifties, trapped in a childless marriage, his only refuge is an old dream: that of a better world. Walter can't sleep; roaming around in the small hours with his friends, he's still trying to keep things under control, even, if need be, by the use of force. But when the day comes that he realizes he's no longer wanted, Walter explodes. Sylvia, his wife, is confronted with a dilemma: should she betray her husband in order to save herself, or sacrifice herself in order to protect him?
