A stalled elevator provides the metaphoric arena for one man to express his life's crisis. Trapped alone with a beautiful woman, he becomes increasingly more claustrophobic and panic stricken. Through the release of his anxiety, he begins to open up about the personal struggles in his life, including his dreams and regrets. The woman empathizes with his fears, encouraging him to reveal his true feelings about his self image and his 'stuck' condition, and to move beyond his comfort zone. Somewhat reluctantly, he verbally begins to relate the frustrations with his work and his love life, while intercut images reflect his mind's desire to possibly pursue something more, namely the woman who shares his current space.
