During the course of an idyllic summer's day in the country, a senseless crime in committed. In its wake, fantasies and passions, desire and loss unite the destinies of the villagers. Most affected is young Martin: his fertile imagination inspires him to identify now with the swordfish - terror of the seas - now with Clint Eastwood, but above all with Jesus Christ.
