About

A Gregorian chant, Dies Irae, opens the film. A telephone rings in a room with a painting of an astronaut in a forest with two deer. Fade to black: The Misteri Brillo Box. A TV flickers; a Brillo box by Andy Warhol floats in space. A man watches TV, then turns to a vent as the camera follows into a night landscape. A falling star appears while a voice recalls childhood nights imagining black holes connecting universes. Through a mirror, a concrete room appears; a young man tunes a radio to bossa nova. A rotating Brillo box, a 1963 Fiat 600D, and a phone call conclude the journey. Gregorian chant fades to Chopin; three Jung quotations appear before the credits.
