Words of Albert Einstein fill the screen: what are the connections, he asks, of profound generality within the realm of living things? In London, people go about their day. A blond woman boards a train on the Underground. The people around her seem in misery. She makes eye contact with several people before settling her gaze on a man with a beard. As others in the car watch, and as scenes of London are mixed in a montage, the two rise and face each other. Woman, man, misery, and society.
