Joe is paying for one summer night of carelessness that cost him the woman he loved and ruined his prospects. He drifts from one pointless job to the next and spends his spare hours training himself to master the city that took her, until a girl, out of breath, appears at his door. Elsewhere in the city, the graphic designer Elise watches her marriage collapse and takes refuge beside the tigers at the zoo, drawing them for reasons she barely grasps.
