Sinossi
Jeremy è sulla soglia dei quarant'anni, è un artista e gode anche di un certo successo, ha qualche allievo occasionale e vende le sue opere, ma vive in un mondo tutto suo, ovattato, protetto dall'anziana madre, che per vivere trasforma la sua casa in una sorta di pensione. Quando la madre muore, per un momento sembra che qualcosa possa cambiare nella sua vita, ma tutto continua esattamente come prima. Jeremy continua a vivere con la testa fra le nuvole, a dedicare qualche minuto al resto della sua vita. Affitta le numerose stanze della grande casa a persone sole, pensionati, studenti, che si mescolano formando uno strano gruppo omogeneo.
