Candid has just been left by his partner. Although he suffers a lot, he’s not capable of ending his life so he decides to “leave the job” to the normal course of life. However, as soon as he gets out, he’s involved in a number of encounters that transform his innocent project in an absurd adventure. In just a few hours, Candid will be involved in a terrible accident, he’ll meet a far relative, will be taken hostage by two peculiar drug dealers and an old and crazy interstellar traveler. In no time, Candid is no longer the same, to the point that even his own ex-partner can’t recognize him. Candid is no ready to meet new possibilities.
