Hundred-and-forty white balls are floating in a hall. Attached to the ceiling with strings of different lengths, from low to high, they are hanging motionless in space. The camera records their presence from across the room, but also from above and from the side. Passing by slowly, the camera is suggesting movement. The balls interact with the patterns on the floor and the walls. The soundtrack consists of opera and trumpet music.
