Italy, on the shores of lake Como. A pleasure trip on a boat takes tourists from port to port. The staff have the passengers disembark. A young boy arranges a meeting with a character who is off-screen. Although this succession of static shots seems random, the meaning direction of the film gradually becomes clear and the intention emerges. Jean-Claude Rousseaus approach to film is like an encounter where at the start you do not know how it will end.
