Synopsis
Nissen and Maiken Algren are in an empty white room with only the essential props for each scene. A bed, bedding, a table, chairs. "We are going to see the perfect human being in action", we hear, and Leth’s voice puts descriptive or puzzled words to little actions: the man touches his face investigatively, jumps as if he is weightless, snaps his fingers in strange ways, and dances with no music.
