Giano and Luc hardly know each other. They are traveling through a wood when a sudden storm breaks, forcing them to take shelter in Luc’s spacious villa. With the ice broken, they start wrestling playfully, but suddenly, an accident happens. Panic-stricken, Giano doesn’t know whether Luc is knocked out or dead. Luc’s sister arrives home unexpectedly, Giano works up the courage to introduce himself but she virtually ignores him. Taking advantage of her absence somewhere in the recesses of the villa, Giano recovers Luc’s body, silently carries it out to the car and sets off again for the wood.
