An elderly woman is making coffee while a man sleeps restlessly. The man wakes up. He runs in vain to catch a train that speeds away. He wants to leave, to flee: he relives his suicide – his obscure illusion – he mimes it repeatedly. Other trains pass — in vain. Then the noise of time is drowned by silence — the white, pure light of two waiting spirits. Together they try a dance step: they are youth and old age embraced to one another. Finally, when tenderness is no longer opposed by obsession, she leaves. He continues to sleep but no longer dreams.

Into a seedy room, there is a gold-plated watch. It is decorated with the small statues of a satyr, an angel and two couples of lovers. The engine driver lives and works in the clockwork. He’s a lonely person who works hard until a silver woman appears from a bright loophole. They fall in love at first sight, they dance, until they melt together, changing the material of the clock, which becomes a perfect union of silver and gold. The angel exults in glory and time stops.
