Dino, 35, works at a waste incineration plant in Bern. When his estranged father dies, he disposes of his belongings – including a plush animal, a symbol of their last day together. As the toy is burned, Dino is confronted with their unresolved relationship and searches in the ashes for a farewell.

Dino, 35 anni, lavora in un impianto d’incenerimento a Berna. Quando il padre da tempo distante muore, Dino getta via i suoi effetti personali – tra cui un pupazzo di peluche, simbolo del loro ultimo giorno insieme. Durante la combustione del giocattolo, Dino si confronta con il rapporto irrisolto con il padre e cerca nelle ceneri un addio.
