Damiano, after dating Cri for a few months, heads eagerly to her home for a special dinner. Cri welcomes him into a suspended, muffled world, where everything seems quiet and serene. She lives alone with her younger brother, fragile and entirely dependent on her, to whom she devotes all her attention, driven by a care that borders on obsession. The evening appears to unfold sweetly, but beneath the surface of normalcy, between Cri's warm attentions and her caring demeanor, something dark and unsettling creeps in, slowly revealing another side of her love. As the dinner continues, Damiano learns the hard way what lies behind Cri's gentle smile and the stifling dedication that binds her to her loved ones. In thirteen minutes, "Rimani." explores the thin line between love and possession, in a story torn between tenderness and tension, leaving the viewer suspended in a reality as sweet as it is dangerously distorted.

A cranky, lonely old fisherman fishes on his boat in the middle of the sea. A flock of albatrosses flies over his head, when one of them breaks away from the group and pounces on the pile of fish caught by the man. The bird slips its beak between the fishing net, steals a fish and swallows it. The old man kills the bird by twisting its neck. At that exact moment a ghost ship emerges from the waves. There are two figures on the ship: Death and Life-in-Death. The two look at the old man and, imposing their hands, summon from the bottom of the sea a sea monster whose tentacles take the old fisherman down with them. The two figures bring the bird back to life as it recedes from the now calm waves.
