Charged with treason under Theodoric the Great in sixth-century Rome, Boethius served one year's imprisonment, awaiting trial and eventual execution. During this time, he wrote The Consolation of Philosophy, which would go on to be one of the most popular philosophical works of all time, contributing much to medieval thought and influencing the likes of Dante and Chaucer, as well as Renaissance writers, such as Milton and Shakespeare.

Après une tentative de suicide, Hugo, 20 ans, est réanimé et placé dans la même chambre d'hôpital que Blanche, une vieille dame au crépuscule de son existence. Entre ce jeune homme qui n'attend rien et cette femme qui mesure le prix de chaque instant, un dialogue se noue autour des grandes questions de la vie et de la mort, de Dieu, du destin et de la liberté, du bonheur, de l'amour... Ce qui aidera peut-être Hugo à trouver un sens à son existence.
