In Duras' typically minimalist style, this conversation in a dark room between Elle (Duras) and Lui (Gérard Depardieu) is interspersed with images of life on the highway. The dialogue creates a seamless juxtaposition of images, and the sparse lyrical plot alludes to the journey of life that we all share. No scene is repeated and the film documents the citing of her script of an unrealizable, impossible film, where in-between, Elle and Lui improvise.
