With a structure where nothing can be fully explained, in which the characters' gaping language is not due to their psychological characteristics, but rather to an objective lack of definition of reality, the plot of the play flirts with the thriller environment, on the one hand, and also, on the other hand, with the post-war European theater - with an inversion from which one could risk calling it a pre-war play.

In an apparently everyday context, some people start to leave, it is not known where or for what. A woman seeks to understand what is happening, her husband accompanies her on this search. The world around them is heading for a complete disruption, and she plunges more and more into an unsolved anguish, until everything becomes something completely new and strange.
