An enormous stone rests impossibly in a studio while a sculptor struggles to extract a figure from it. Soon the artist realises that he is not alone and he is drawn into the shadows where he discovers a parallel studio to his own. There he is faced with his own future creation as his memories, fears, illusions and betrayals become real. During the course of events he turns into a spectator of his own creative process, to discover that he has been assimilated by his work. The line between creator and created vanishes.
