Ernesto is sick and tired of school. He doesn't want to study any more, because in school you only learn what you don't know yet. And he must and will learn all that later on in life anyways, as he claims. It is un-avoid-able. This 7-minute black and white film, based on a text by Marguerite Duras, underpins with its marvelous musicality, subtle sense of humor and rough direction, that in the world of the Straubs, there is no division between important and less important works. However, \"En rachachant\" is a great film - de-fi-nite-ly.
