This film employs a fascinating technique to show the various stages of a sculpture produced by Maxim Adam-Tessier. There is no narration, but the viewer is able to see the sculptor's hesitations, his choices - and his regrets.
'The technique of this research film of great integrity is remarkable. The care taken to be truthful extends almost to complete frankness. This is a courageous film.' UNESCO
