A film maker pays homage to the paintings of great artists; Goya, Ingres, Delacroix, Rembrandt and El Greco, but the action takes place outside his film; on set, in a factory, in a hotel; and the themes are classical music, painting, film making, work and love. The characters and their tales swirl around us, with none taking centre stage, in this beautifully woven mix of themes. A film for intellectuals, cineastes, lovers of art generally and anyone who is merely inquisitive about 'film'.
