In a dim library a daughter brings a silver lamp to her father Jobo Hathaway, whose past bargains with a cold creditor surface. A solemn stranger reveals a 25 year debt, detailing a life built on wealth at others’ expense, and the lamp’s glow witnesses a pact that seals the fate of soul and fortune.
In a luxurious library on New Year’s Eve John Hathaway, a prosperous middle aged man, sits in solitary reflection amid guests who offer advice and entertainment he rejects. His inner ghosts grow louder as his wife Maria, lively yet unfulfilling, urges companionship. He muses on changing shores of life and contemplates making love to her to ease his loneliness.
