Carl Ridders, a 50 year old Belgian actor, suffers from the motor neurone disease ALS.
In the last month’s of his life he receives a lot of visitors. One of them is the photographer Lieve Blancquaert.
Together, they have very intimate talks, take pictures and philosophize about life. In the final stage of the disease, Carl opts for euthanasia and the two friends have to say farewell.
