Audrey (Halle Berry) and her husband Brian (David Duchovny) have been married for 11 years, raising a pair of children together, living a happy and peaceful life. One day, Brian dies while intervening in a dispute involving a stranger's family, and Audrey's once gentle life suddenly opens up a chasm of despair, a drastic change in fortune.To fill the void, Audrey invites her husband's best friend Jerry Sunborne (Benicio Del Toro) to move into the room next to her garage, hoping he can help her and the kids get through this difficult time. As a result, the destitute addict Jerry has to struggle against his drug addiction while helping Audrey and at the same time rebuilding his own life.Gradually, Audrey accepts Jerry as a family member, and the two children also see him as their "new dad." Jerry successfully stays away from drugs and finds a new job, and their lives begin to flourish. However, the friction between them slowly starts to arise; it turns out that loneliness cannot justify love.Do the past memories dissipate like smoke in the fire or are they reborn from the ashes? Embracing each other, do the two scarred individuals feel more lonely or do they find warmth in each other? The film attempts to find an answer.
