Aurora is young, has a job, a circle of friends, lives alone in the city, goes out when she likes and sleeps with whoever she wants. That is to say, apparently she has the common life of a happy young urbanite, if it weren't for the fact that in her existence nothing goes as it should be: her life partner -and mortgage partner- has left her, she hardly speaks to her friends so as not to be forced to explain them things she doesn't really want to face, and she prefers her family to be kept far away, lest they reproach her for losing such a good boy.
So she has decided not to take vacations and work in the heat of August in a half-deserted city, in a half-gas office and live in a half-empty building. And through this lonely landscape runs Brais, that gifted child who lives in the building and from who there is no way to get rid of. There are also her Saturday night casual affairs that leave such a bad taste in her mouth, and the erotic novels that entertain her -or, who knows, save her. But, above all, there is the elephant, that pink elephant in the middle of the room.
