An English professor, one year after the sudden death of his boyfriend, is unable to cope with his typical days in 1960s Los Angeles. George Falconer (Colin Firth) approaches a car accident in the middle of a snow-white scenery. He wakes up: he was dreaming about the moment when his partner of 16 years, Jim (Mathew Goode), died. George remembers the phone ringing on that fateful day when Jim's cousin told him about the fatal accident. George is depressed and packs a gun in his briefcase. On campus, George meets a student named Kenny who discusses recreational drug use with him. George buys bullets and goes to a convenience store, where he meets Carlos. At home, George pretends to shoot himself but can't find the right position. He attends dinner with his friend Charley and they remember their past.
