A video by Géronnez and Van Ré, two members of Groupe 50/04. Recorded from the inside of a car, the viewer sees a hand that sticks a picture postcard on the dashboard. On the card a historical building is depicted. The car starts moving, until it reaches the portrayed building. Then the card gets replaced by a new one that also depicts an historical building. Again the car drives to the spot and again a new postcard is stuck on the dashboard.
