Burdened by the pressure of his own creativity, he decides to retreat to an old country house, seeking inspiration away from the hustle and bustle of the city. What begins as a journey of self-discovery quickly turns into an internal struggle with his personal demons.
Meanwhile, Paul encounters other characters in the house, each carrying their own stories of longing and sorrow. Among them is a young pianist, Marie, who has fled from her past and is searching for her own voice.
