A silent man, of volcanic, visionary instincts, lives in an old mansion with his housemaid and driver. He leaves home one morning, after waking from a long sleep, to be driven through roads and tracks. That man’s spirit, haunted by transcendent glimpses and ghosts, leads him to wander, somnambular and diffuse, through a dense forest fog. Projected on the magnetic, fluid landscape, his shadow envisions a series of characters, dishevelled spectres that pass through the world, forever living in his actions and words.
