Timothy (The Squire)
Jim is a small child who lives in an inn run by his parents. The arrival of a strange captain to the Island they live will trouble his existence and tip him into an universe of adventures.
A sensitivity to sounds coming from the activities of an unwelcome guest in the close quarters of an apartment is only one important component in this atmospheric, avant-garde drollery by Chantal Akerman. When the apartment owner comes home, her guest is settled in and at first, the slightly reclusive host decides simply to eat her breakfast in her room instead of having to face morning conversation with her guest. Sounds of the toilet flushing, the bath water running and splashing, footsteps pacing, and furniture moving invade the hostess' refuge in her bedroom like the frontrunners of an all-out offensive. She locks herself up for 28 days, life's detritus accumulating around her, just so she does not have to go out to face the nemesis that lurks beyond her door.

Leão de Ouro em Veneza/1983, "O Estado das Coisas" foi dirigido por Wender durante um hiato na produção de "Hammett", que ele estava filmando nos EUA. Uma equipe cinematográfica está em Portugal para realizar um remake de um clássico de sci-fi americano, "The Most Dangerous Man Alive". A produção é paralisada quando o produtor Gordon vai a Los Angeles apresentar o copião das primeiras cenas e solicitar mais verba aos seus investidores. Como Gordon não retorna, Fritz, o diretor, decide ir procurá-lo nos EUA. Mas o produtor é agora um homem mudado: vive escondido, temendo a chegada de um suposto assassino. Fritz, a princípio, pensa que aquilo não passa de um delírio paranoico de Gordon, mas muda de ideia quando a vida de ambos se transforma numa absurda trama de filme B.
Jim

Eventually their party begins to die, and the survivors ration their meat among them, attaching a religious-type ritual to its dispensation.
