Synopsis by Clarke Fountain

In this aimless and meandering film, five separate individuals drop out of their lives in order to drift around Europe with no clear end in mind. Despite the diversity of the individuals beginning these journeys, the film apparently offers no appealing characters, incidents, or insights, as it was reportedly very coldly received by even by the usually more sympathetic audiences of the 1992 Venice Film Festival, as very few stayed through to its ending.
