Tuscany, Italy is the scene of wheeling and dealing over the irony of a rejected script. The place where mythical and legendary figures meet each other, or not, but where their paths cross due to the play of fate and time. A landscape where the young Sarah wanders with her grandfather and is convinced that the poet who collects stones along the banks of the river is going to write a sonnet about love with them. It's the place where the film-maker is thrown out of the window, thus falling into his own plot. A place where there is room for humour, beauty, love and poetry. A place where the music of J.S. Bach can be heard and where Antonin Artaud appears "to attempt a terrible feminine". Antonin, who imagines himself Adonis, is run over by a tractor, and the film-maker remains, overloaded with and entangled in metres and metres of film, spun out time exposures, ideas, thoughts and fantasies.
