A successful New York advertising agency manager. After his daughter died unexpectedly, he and his wife divorced again. A series of life shocks made him depressed. He wrote letters to three people all day long. These three people are "love" and "time". And "death".
At this time, a competitor sent him a request to acquire his advertising company, but was rejected because he was still immersed in his own pain.
The advertising agency also has several colleagues. They are the company's greedy partner, a woman in her 30s who is still 23 years old, and a man who is about to die of cancer. When they learned that their boss had rejected the acquisition, they were very angry, because the acquisition could make them rich in one night.
So these people conspired to hire three actors to play "love", "time" and "death" respectively, so that the boss thought they were truly unique. Three unsuccessful drama actors have to play love, time, and death respectively, and then through this role, howard the protagonist can determine that he is suffering from neurosis. In this way, they can prove that the boss is crazy, and kick him out of the company, removing the biggest obstacle to acquisition.
The plan was implemented like this, and everything seemed to proceed as conspired by the three, but when the actor met a woman Madeleine who also lost a child in the mutual aid club, things changed
.
