One evening. A hotel. As Julia enters the lobby, she runs into Mauro, her ex, who is waiting for her with a bouquet of flowers. She's anxious. Mauro harasses Julia because he can't accept their breakup. Three parties bear witness: A well-meaning receptionist. An indifferent elderly couple. A scornful woman in a bathrobe. How do these witnesses react to the situation?

Una sera. Lobby dell'hotel. Julia entra nel suo hotel e fronteggia Mauro, il suo ex, che la sta aspettando con un mazzo di fiori. Ansia. Mauro, non accettando la loro separazione, molesta Julia. Sono presenti tre testimoni: Un receptionist ben intenzionato. Una coppia di anziani passivi. Una donna sdegnosa vestita in accappatoio. Come affronteranno i testimoni questa situazione?
