The film is about the revolt of a thirty-year old man who renounces his previous way of life when faced with the threat of death during an earthquake. He sets off in quest of everything denied to him until now. His first thoughts are of Eva, his best friend's girl, with whom he has long been in love. The relationship which he forms with her comes to an end because of his failure to respect her personal space. After a period of intense loneliness, they give the affair another try, only this time they set up a "ménage à trois". His cinematic fantasies, however, remain his sole refuge, as he still has not learnt how to make himself heard and get what he wants. The only thing he knows for sure is that it is time he starts living, in the real sense of the word.
While Paula Rego belatedly was recognised as one of the leading feminist pioneers of her age, little has been written about her exploration of fluid sexuality. Indeed the current of sado-masochism in her drawings and paintings, has tended to encourage an understanding as a classic clash between the patriarchy and exploited women.
Józef Brandt harboured a fascination for the history of 17th century Poland, and his favourite themes included ballistic scenes and genre scenes before and after the battle proper –all and sundry marches, returns, supply trains, billets and encampments, patrols, and similar motifs illustrating the drudgery of warfare outside of its culminating moments.
