The film is about the subtle boundary between reality and fiction. On Christmas’s Eve, during twelve hours straight and in a single location, five actors were filmed uninterruptedly by three hand-held cameras. They were waiting for someone. They wonder if he will ever come. The reunion of these five friends, the absences, the joys and the pains are shared by all at the peak of tension.

The film within a film reveals itself.
