March 2020: João, an HIV-positive Brazilian living in Vienna, has no one to spend lockdown with. Isolated in his one-room apartment, he looks down at the strangely empty streets. While his boyfriend Tom only sporadically checks in from somewhere far away and an online date contracts Covid before they can meet, João's imagination confronts him with a past he would rather not face.
