An old man is sitting on a bank with his granddaughter at a square in the city. Sud­denly, he collapses with a heart attack and falls onto the ground. While he is falling down, the images become slower, each single image seems to freeze, generating its own echo and to construct a panorama. A trip through the city begins, filmed with a time - slice camera. It starts with the old man’s death and stops with the birth of a child at the other end of the city.
