The film opens with a shot of a nude couple embracing in bed, then shifts to black and white scenes of them at home, clothed and together. It's nighttime. She catches his reflection in the window and draws the curtains. After intimacy, they sit, smoke, and drink coffee, captured in grainy black and white. They kiss, she smiles, and they light candles. The images are often fleeting, with unusual camera angles and shifting light, sometimes dark, sometimes illuminated like a searchlight. The scenes return to negative when they go back to bed.
