The film cuts between three related narratives: a film collective on a journey to find a mysterious film theorist/filmmaker; a couple whose relationship is falling apart as they each work on pieces concerning the cinematic past and the cinematic present; and two cinematic radicals holed up in an unknown location trying to understand how to revolutionize cinema.

But they are left behind. Now they must try and make sense of it all and figure out how to carry on. Will they try to reassemble their old lives or attempt to forge a new way?
