A mother contemplates the last morning when her youngest son, about to leave home, appears before her as always. While he gets ready to leave, she notices his usual gestures and lets herself be overcome by the weight of what is ending: every detail turns into vertigo before the uncertain future. A sober and moving portrait of the empty nest.
