Years of buying dresses compulsively made of Sandrine’s wardrobe a scape from the real world. Now, wanting to become the mature woman and actress she already is, she decides to sell her dresses and to have an on-camera catharsis that finally releases the pain in her.
Distorted archive footage shows an old woman living in a remote village in the Himalayas. But who is this woman singing a traditional love rhyme for the camera man? Years later we meet the same woman in a different setting. Everything around her seems to have changed but not her passion for singing. But who is listening to her songs of longing? Songs and silence, religion and science, East and West, past and present meet in a house somewhere in the Belgian ‘jungle’.
