A boy gets a postcard from his dead dad and refuses to believe the coffin isn't empty.
The postcard obviously begins with a map. Posted in the Caribbean, it is addressed by a father to his son. We quickly understand that the mother and her child are preparing to leave for the funeral mass of the father in question. Confident in his father's life and good health, the boy refuses to believe that the coffin is occupied and, indifferent to the solemn atmosphere of the moment, he worries about a young woman standing apart from the procession.
