Traveling through the abyss, underworld dog Rainer recounts the six lives of Conann, perpetually put to death by her own future, across eras, myths and ages. From her childhood, a slave of Sanja and her barbarian horde, to her accession to the summits of cruelty at the doors of our world.

Usures is a reflection after an encounter with Saïd, a homeless choreographer. His withdrawal from the world translates into an absence from the film. Usures then fills this void with bodies in movement, substrates and bursts of life that embody the emotional states that Saïd goes through in his daily life. The underground corridors, intervals between two worlds, become the scene where bodies reconcile and reclaim the power over their fate.
