Description:
Marguerite Duras and Gerard Depardieu perform an on-screen reading of a film script. Duras and Depardieu occasionally offer commentary on the characters and their intentions. The film consists solely of this reading; there are no visuals or other elements. The script details a meeting between a woman hitchhiker with no discernible past and a communist truck driver. As they read, Duras expresses her disillusionment with communism and doubts about its potential for success.
