A stolid young man finds his attachment to his deceased uncle is stronger than his regressive relationship with his girlfriend. The young man's natural introversion inherits a brooding behavior. He locks away all feeling and his transitory uncle haunts his motivations. His girlfriend enters inside his emotional vault but her bold aura is more elusive than her brooding boyfriend's repressed emotions. He is forced to move his relationship forward with his girlfriend; however his definition of 'forward' leads him back into the beautiful delusion of the past; for better or for worse.
