Comme dans un voyage imaginaire, au milieu d'une ruine enfouie au fond de la mer, tout se réanime soudainement. Deux danseurs de la troupe montréalaise Lalala Human Steps, Louis Lecavalier et Marc Béland, se livrent à une chorégraphie tantôt tourmentée, tantôt harmonieuse signée Edouard Lock. La caméra qui se présente comme un troisième élément de cette étude de mouvement, vient se mêler aux pas des danseurs pour donner lieu à une véritable communion de la danse et de l'image, le temps d'un rêve, jusqu'à ce que l'eau reprenne possession des lieux.

A fantastic journey in the midst of a ruin, immersed at the bottom of the sea, where everything is suddenly being brought back to life. Interpreting choreography by Edouard Lock, two Montreal based dancers, Louise Lecavalier and Marc Béland, of Lalala Human Steps, indulge in a sometimes tormented, sometimes harmonious dance. The camera, the third and last element of the chassés-croisés, intertwines with the dancers' choreographic feats, thus reuniting movement and image into a true communion for the duration of the dream. The water eventually repossesses its domain.
