Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka

This is a story of the relationships between six people preparing for a good-bye dinner for their common friend Percival (Gerardjan Rijnders), and as the actors prepare for their roles by getting into costumes and character, the story -- or lack of it -- begins. Voiceovers narrate the thoughts of each of the friends, whose facial expressions and vocal nuances are charged with conveying the depth of complex knots of mixed emotions, from love and loyalty to pride and envy. When the feast has ended, Percival bids adieu to the group -- indirectly preparing them for the final curtain call in their friendship.
