At noon, in the shade of riverside trees — as if in the middle of life — you lose something. Yet love is as strong as the river. A man is going through abrupt changes in his life — both personal and caused by the war. He spends a day alone by the river, revisiting a forgotten hobby — fishing. A sense of love and acceptance fills him, but only for a brief moment — he must return to the war.

In a dramatic time for his homeland, a man sees America with his own eyes for the first time and compares its image to reality.
