Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
In this perplexing experimental film, two people are having a lengthy, surreptitious discussion about doing something nasty to a third party. Louise (Anne Alvara) and Leonard (Jean-Claude Wino) are the plotting couple, but is the third party Louise's brother? Is that brother Leonard? Why is that mirror hanging on the wall? Many questions are brought to the surface in this film, but few are answered. As the psychological dominance switches from Louise to Leonard, the film switches from color to black and white. Finally, the couple opens the door and a wind blows through, color returns, and Louise is now a housewife chastising either her son or brother (Melvil Popard) about his writing; and the enigma continues.
