This film is a critique of the patriarchal construction of history. We observe this history being deconstructed and reconstructed through human bodies, which, coexisting with the poetry of the queer woman poet Sappho, in the place where she is believed to have grown up and written, Eresos Lesvos, try to reconstruct a collective memory based on the freedom of their bodies and their environment. As the sunlight spreads across space until it sets, there is a passage from one spatio-temporal point in history to another, from the sound of cicadas to the sound of machines and then to hope.
A young girl from a good home starts dating a slightly older man, and it is not long before she starts falling out of all her other connections and relationships, swallowed up by a closed world that only has two people in it and a few big dogs tied at the front door.

Out at Six tells the story of Livi, the filmmaker, through a timeline divided into eight stages based on research taken from hundreds of cases in which women were murdered by their partners. The film is compiled from interviews with people closest to her, reflecting how the surrounding environment witnesses the reality of such relationships.
