Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
This politically symbolic feature concerns two married couples who swap partners when visiting a remote island. One young woman is a Maoist revolutionary who develops an apolitical friendship with the island's owner, a disabled former revolutionary. She is able to communicate with the man despite the fact that he is a blind deaf mute. He inspires the woman before she is off to take part in the upcoming, unnamed revolution.
