A well-known architect’s trip to the Paris Airport takes an unexpected turn when a young woman forces him to listen to her story. What seems to be a flirtatious encounter changes in time, although the time line is interrupted, to become a provocative and threatening relationship. Ghosts from the past and sense of guilt resurface more easily in a non-place such as an airport and during a conversation with a stranger. The film seems to tell us that there is no such thing as fate. There is a cosmic order; from this idea comes the title of the novel on which the film is based. The threads of the plot are weaved together to then be undone and become visible.
