Three people.
A man and two women meet in an unfamiliar closed space where a dialogue of intense repressed emotions and movements develops. With exaggeratedly abstract and everyday gestures‚ in continuous movement‚ the three of them overcome their ambivalence and are drawn to the extremes of love of life and desperation‚ strength and compliancy‚ closure and availibility.
