About this listen

Jay is leaving his partner and their two sons. As the long night before his departure unfolds, he remembers the ups and downs of his relationship with Susan. In an unforgettable and often pitiless reflection of their time together, he analyses the agonies and the joys of trying to make a life with another person.
