French description

Ce film, composé de deux images, l'une blanche et l'autre noire, est projeté sur un ballon-sonde placé devant les rideaux qui n'ont pas dévoilé pas la toile traditionnelle. Constitué de courtes réflexions sur la vie, l'amour et l'art, on y entend des poésies sonores devenues célèbres et des textes syncopés faussement chantés.
