Seeking the mystic help of a pendulum, both lovers enter a dangerous game of questions that will reveal the most undesirable intimacy. In the time of day, they’ll go together through the fear of the illness, the subtle loss of the innocence, and the unparalleled complicity that arises from deep truth.
