A neo-noir meditation on marriage, infidelity, and moral compromise, where a gentle man's rationalization of murder reveals the darkness lurking beneath domestic civility.

A very gentle middle-aged man is married, but when he falls in love with another woman, he decides that to divorce his wife would humiliate her too much – so instead he decides to kill her.
