Two strangers, a guitarist and an introspective young woman, cross paths at a long bench along the side of a city building. One by one, additional strangers join the pair on the bench--a distressed woman in a foot cast, an insecure jogger, a famished pregnant woman, an anxious businessman at lunch, a curious child with an ice cream cone, two quarrelsome women, and a dignified collector of drinks cans. Amidst a whirlwind of interactions that lead to both harmony and discord, the guitarist and the young woman eventually discover they have something special in common.
