Amid the isolated era of dictatorship, a naive, young and enthusiastic drama-school graduate has been given the job of directing a theater group in a grim factory town. His spirits are undaunted even when the super-conservative locals afflict his life. However, when the winds of change sweep through the country, while everyone else is given a new lease on life, it begins to seem as though he has lost something essential to the continuation of his.
