Una familia pasa un domingo a orillas del Sena. Mientras los hombres duermen la siesta, unos jóvenes remeros invitan a la madre y a la hija a dar un paseo en barca; un paseo que se convertirá en algo más que una inocente excursión fluvial.

Sus cuadros son mostrados en el film para suscitar una reflexión sobre las relaciones entre cine y pintura.
