Where is the line that separates life and death? Do we actually realize that we've crossed it when the time comes?

Movie Poster: De Paso

This is the story of a run down toll booth in the middle of a beautiful and melancholic landscape. Marina and Simón work there - she handles the money, he's in charge of security. Marina is in charge of dealing with the cars and motorbikes, while Simón makes sure no one steps out of line.

During downtime Marina tries to play with Simón, but he never pays her attention. Time goes by like this every day. By the end of the story we realize that all those who've crossed the toll booth have passed away, and that it actually marks the gate to that unknown world that's out there - the "life after death".
