Le film est une suite de mouvements de caméra en plan-séquences, ne montrant pas la présence de l'Homme, dans la région de la Côte-Nord au Canada, à peu près à 170 km au nord est de Sept-Îles (Québec). Le son est une bande son composée à partir de celle qui sert de programme à la caméra : elle est donc aussi « synthétique » que les images sont empreintes de nature.

Montes-Bradley approaches Jorge Luis Borges on film. The portrait of Borges emerges as a counterpoint to the interviewees, some of which evoke scandal and most of which cut through stereotypes and presuppositions surrounding this key figure. The title of the film is a reference to a quote from the poem “Borges and I”, slightly modify to pay a tribute to the writer´s billings. The strategy employed by Montes-Bradley when it comes to Borges, a writer of whom almost everything has been said, consists on giving the word to the writer himself and to a select group of intellectuals who dwell on the margins of the Argentine cultural aparatik. Montes-Bradley, however, does not exhibit Borges like a painting to be admired but rather as counterpoint to the observations of others. We are neither the hapless witnesses of another saccharine celebration of Jorge Luis Borges, nor are we forced to endure another fashionable defrocking of an idol. The Borges that emerges from the interaction of the testimonies in this documentary surges from the heat of the debate, from the strong opinions, some certainly scandalous, most politically incorrect.

Ce documentaire sur le phénomène OVNI vise à montrer que certains ovnis peuvent être extraterrestres et que le secret et le ridicule sont régulièrement utilisés pour garder la vérité sur les ovnis cachée.

Mais ce dernier sombre dans la dépression et préfère couper les ponts. De son côté, Marie, mariée depuis quinze ans et mère de trois enfants, est rongée par un sentiment de culpabilité : elle conduisait la voiture responsable de l’accident. Elle demande alors à Niels, son mari médecin, de se rapprocher de soutenir la fiancée de Joaquim pour la soutenir dans cette épreuve.
