In the unusual city of Lethe, a collection of seemingly unrelated characters find their lives briefly intersecting. The film presents a series of vignettes, each a quick, quirky snapshot of everyday life, connected by a shared sense of melancholy and humor. Scenes include a woman reflecting on a dreamlike honeymoon and a man disturbed by a vivid dream involving airplanes. Throughout, lively Dixieland jazz music underscores the fleeting nature of these encounters and the city's peculiar atmosphere.
