The work takes place over a year. The seasons follow one after the other around a bench in a public square. During that year and its seasons, three octogenarians and an unscrupulous dog are involved in situations as they try to live together in harmony (or not). But in this everyday environment of simple problems and conflicts there is a major problem that they will have to deal with throughout the play: death. A peculiar character who observes, stalks and confronts them throughout the show, trying to catch and take them in various ways. The elderly characters and the dog try to evade death, run away from it, ignore it and confront it in order to continue.
