At the margins of a city somewhere in the south of Europe, a young couple starts their day with their job routine: collecting deceased pets from their owners in order to cremate them and return their ashes. This paid job aside, they also collect and cremate roadkill found as they drive around in their car. In this endless life cycle, human beings and animals coexist harmoniously, until the couple causes a roadkill themselves.
