In the 90s, the Ultimo Impero discotheque made thousands of people dance.
Today, in its abandoned premises, a man and a woman find refuge, two solitudes that will meet.
SYNOPSIS
It is a long winter that seems to have no end. A man and a woman are cold and alone. They find shelter in the rubble of the Ultimo Impero, a former disco that in the 90s had made thousands of people dance. In the presence of the decadent simulacrum of a world that was, he and she look for food, money and warmth in a suspended time made of waiting and silence. We do not know where they come from, nor where they are headed, but it is right there in the Ultimo Impero that, thanks to an unexpected gesture of humanity, their solitudes will meet.
