The film tells the story of two men and a woman. They happen to come across each other on the corridor of a local authorities office, hardly notice each other and yet soon succumb to each other in their daydreams. A photo of the island proves to be the focal point of their fantasies. Although they all return to their day-to-day lives in the end, their dreams seem less distant.
