This film evokes interwined lives of three ephemeral plant works by Bob Verschueren, which are installed in different places: in an abandoned coke warehouse, a beach on the Nort Sea and a covered playground.
We follow the process of their creation and then their life within the world that surrounds them, that of nature and man.
They both correspond and contrast with these places and reflect a world in which everything is fragile and ephemeral.
