A five-part production, out of which three parts being shown. In Part One we see the face of a woman, almost motionless, telling the sad tale of her life in an unfamiliar language. Every so often we see a man sitting on the edge of a bed. Sex and death are linked together in her story again and again and form the leitmotiv in her life.

In Part Two we see a man lying on a bed, with only his head on screen, and a woman’s two feet next to him. Only when the man blinks his eyes do we realise that we are not watching an image frozen in time, and he touches the woman's toes once in an effort to make contact. His silent thoughts are visualised by written text. Depressing thoughts, of powerlessness, misfortune and loneliness.

While watching a scene from The Graduate, the artist tries to understand his absurd desire to watch woman cry.

Part Three shows the face of the woman from Part One with text rolling vertically over the screen, accompanied by music. The text is the script for a film and gives the context for the two previous scenes. The feet on the pillow next to the man turn out to be those of the woman; she is telling him her story. The script is about 'sex and sadness’, a person's ultimate loneliness, the incapacity to truly bond, and the desire to, the tragedy of life. A film that was never made as reported at the end, but nevertheless plays out again and again.
