The year is 1997. In the Addison Apartments, life unfolds on different levels. Larry occupies the basement, while Sal resides on the third floor. On the fourth floor, in room 402, Henry, a fifty-year-old man of gruff exterior but gentle heart, sits with Lisa, a forty-one-year-old woman of radiant sweetness. The camera pans into their kitchen, where domestic tranquility reigns.
