Plot summary

A young man who has not yet found his place in life takes a temporary job as a waiter at a run-down hotel. The film looks at the relationships between the hotel employees, primarily the one between the young man called Giliap and Anna – a relationship that Giliap, who is socially awkward and has trouble communicating intimately, is unable to develop. Stuck in their working roles, the hotel staff’s meagre lives ramble on as they dream of better things. The only thing that unites them in their boredom is their hatred of their authoritarian, wheelchair-bound boss, who is still living in the past and thinks he is a person of importance in the community.
