In the autumn of his life, Thomas lives a simple and isolated life in his below-street-level apartment accompanied by a radio, a chess board and a photo of his wife. He does not venture outside very often, and when he does, the outside world reminds him of his old age, loneliness and his past which he would not like to remember. His life feels like a never-ending story, and to make it whole, Thomas has to face his past. ”I am old, and life is long.”
