Ever since her abortion, Jana has been trying to reorganise her life. Aaron was there for her during the procedure, but since then he has been distancing himself from her. Although, he was never going to stay in Paris anyway. Aaron is keen to avoid a last get-together with Jana and during one of his last nights out he loses his wallet, a great excuse to avoid meeting up. But Jana insists she wants to help him search. Together they roam the streets of Paris for an afternoon, trying to navigate their emotions. Once upon a time, they were very close but now it seems they are unable to understand one another. The silent moments are the most meaningful.
