В 1889 году на улице итальянского города Турина случилось странное происшествие. Кучер хлестал кнутом свою старую лошадь, которая отказывалась тронуться с места. Неожиданно к повозке подбежал хорошо одетый господин с пышными усами и обнял животное за шею, при этом горько зарыдав. Это был не кто иной, как всемирно известный философ Фридрих Ницше. Его с трудом увели от лошади, а когда привели домой, выяснилось, что он не в себе. Ницше поместили в лечебницу для душевнобольных, где он провел остаток жизни… Но что же случилось с лошадью и ее хозяином? Об этом и расскажет фильм.

Wendell is trying to make peace with his earthly deterioration in the face of late-stage cancer. His son Josh is fighting it, fleeing it, denying it.
