Jarvis has just moved to Shanghai, he has a very positive impact with the Chinese reality and the new people he meets. Suddenly, he is confined to his still empty apartment. He finds it difficult to cope with the loneliness, he first abandons himself to this emptiness then dives into very dark thoughts that go back and forth in time and offer a gallery of distant or close characters. The only way to get rid of his nightmares is to escape from his superintendent-policeman and walk across the deserted city to a friend’s house.
