Nicola, a young filmmaker, drags an amateur film crew along to meet Matthieu, a paralyzed poet in an electric wheelchair, who lives in a mill. As time goes by and nothing really takes shape, Nicola realizes the inanity of his project, the film slips more and more out of his control and he becomes increasingly absorbed in a ludicrous, poetical search for inspiration.

January, 1920. 350,000 French soldiers remain missing in action. Major Dellaplane tirelessly matches the dead and the wounded with families' descriptions. Honor and ethics drive him; he hates the idea of "the unknown soldier." Into his sector, looking for her husband, comes a haughty, politically connected Parisian, Madame Irène de Courtil. Brusquely, Dellaplane offers her 1/350,000th of his time, but as their paths cross and she sees his courage and resolve, feelings change. After he finds a surprising connection between her missing husband and a local teacher, Irène makes Dellaplane an offer. This man of action hesitates: has he missed his only chance?
