Summary :
A breaker dances alone in a bus shelter, in front of a station.
He first seems to struggle with the elements. Gradually his movement becomes more fluid, wider, more joyful.
He then heads to the city center. There, some scattered dancers join him in the same movement, forming solos, duets, trios and soon a collective dance with the city and its architecture.

This dance is growing constantly through the city, it always carries away more participants, in an increasing energy, creating a visual magic that is also accompanied by drawn pictures coming from elsewhere. Until everything is blurred, seems to saturate, becomes confused: the film and the town itself seem to undergo a "bug".

But this movement is balanced again to finally reach its climax on an open place where an enthusiastic crowd repeats the same choreography in unison.
