The documentary is Jacques Monory's vision of the universe. It is a portrait of the artist, his thoughts and works.

For the past fifty years, Jacques Monory has been an integral part of the French artistic scene. He has been and is still today the great artist of the so-called "Narrative Figuration" movement which coincided with Pop Art in the United States and in Great Britain.
The works of Jacques Monory have mainly to do with American cinema. He uses the pictures of American cinema to describe the world as he sees it. Although he does have a pessimistic vision of the world, he nevertheless manages to distance himself from his work and from his personal life.
