戰火中失去膝下二子的婦人渾然不知自己罹患肺癌，邂逅了跟亡子年紀相仿的男子，兩人間迸發出甜美又危險的情愫。一如片中角色始終籠罩在死亡陰影下，女主角在現實中亦剛經歷喪夫之痛，藉由劇中劇與長獨白，她也得以對著鏡頭一吐不捨亡夫的悲痛之情，讓現實與虛構遙相對話，在愛情、死亡與孤寂的拉扯間細細咀嚼生命的重量。

Marta is a cultured middle-aged married woman who doesn’t know that she is terminally ill. She still mourns the death of her two sons. One day Marta meets a young man, a simple worker, Bogusand. Their dates at the shores of the river overgrown with sweet rush are marked by a mutual fascination. They’re not aware that Fate is about to play a cruel trick on them.
