A man sits quietly, and then he outstretches his hands to make some movements in the air. After a while, he starts to act as playing a guitar, in consequence a guitar shows up in his hands suddenly, but soon it turns into a broom, a pan,a Chinese cabbage,a dog,a knife……

The film tries to symbolize the roads of becoming artists, or talk about how to find the inner melody of yourself……
