The action takes place in a grim anarchist future civilization after a big crash or war. A young man, Allan (Bentein Baardson), decides to move out of the city as his family live in. He brings his wife, Lisa ('Petronella Barker'), and the son to a big garbage dump located outside the city. Where they settle and survive on the waste they find on the dump. They are in many ways more closely related to each other by living this way, and Lisa eventually becomes pregnant. But there is a great shortage of water (Sweetwater) and the family of three must go out and look for water. When they discover they are not alone in staying in landfill. It will be a struggle for existence.
在与朱丽叶·比诺什合作并入围威尼斯电影节主竞赛单元的首部长片《等待》中，皮耶罗·梅西纳就触及了死亡和悲伤的主题，而现在他要做出更进一步的探讨——爱人逝去之后，我们该如何面对别离，又要如何处理彼此之间的回忆？在他这部入围柏林国际电影节主竞赛单元的新片《另一种结局》中，男主角萨尔给出的答案是，求助于名为"另一种结局"的新技术，让女友的意识短暂复活，但这却是以另一个女人的身体为容器。在此过程中重拾的快乐或慰藉，究竟是让爱永恒了，还是逐渐消逝了呢？也许值得我们好好想想。
