The pasty grey, which surrounds Pavel's caravan resembles the life inside of it: the 71-old Russian spends the evening of his life in a dismal and monotonous way between marram grasses and sleepy seaports. But at one point Pavel makes a decision: He picks up the telephone receiver, calls his old friend Jack and starts walking – just straight ahead to California.

An uninterrupted rehearsal of Chekhov's 'Uncle Vanya' plays out by a company of actors. The setting: their run-down theater with an unusable stage and crumbling ceiling. The play is shown act by act with the briefest of breaks to move props or for refreshments. The lack of costumes, real props and scenery is soon forgotten.
