A devastating portrait of a man's final day as he visits loved ones to say goodbye before ending his life, grappling with love, loss, and the weight of human connection.

Thomas has decided to die, and spends his last day driving around to say good-bye to everybody, his son, wife, mistress and all others. Nobody understands that this good-bye is definite, and still he says things they will never forget.
