A 52-year old piano teacher loses his job in his „best years“ due to the shortage of students in his school. Already very depressed, he barely survives a beating in a park, and on his way home he visits the florist’s where his friend, an unemployed vocal coach, gives him a bouqet of flowers so he can have something to celebrate his marriage anniversary. He then confesses to his wife that a dog saved him from greater injuries, but he avoids mentioning that the dog actually saved him from a suicide attempt with a belt already around his neck.
