A successful female conductor leaves the city and lives alone in the northern forest on the seashore. One day a chorister comes to return the irreplaceable conductor to work but herself remains there, where the understanding of time, the line between reality and dream is erased. The constantly sounding voice of the chorus girl becomes the inner voice of the silent conductor.
