In what way can reflecting on worlds very far from our own, either in space or time, bear relevance for us today? Is there a scientific legacy - a before and after Lévi-Strauss - in anthropology? This documentary retraces the intellectual path of the author of "Tristes tropiques" ("A World on the Wane") and "La Pensée sauvage" ("The Savage Mind"), Claude Lévi-Strauss. The anthropologist and founder of structural anthropology in France is portrayed via numerous selected extracts of interviews he has given since the 1960s. The film is a fascinating introduction into the mind of a man who is interested in all men. Lévi-Strauss has great confidence (in spite of a pessimistic view of our contemporary world) in the creative capacities of the human mind.

В большом поместье живут две пожилые дамы и служанка. Замок возжелали приобрести капиталисты, которые готовы ждать хоть пятьдесят лет, прежде чем в него вселиться. Старушки сопротивляются, не хотят им уступить. Неожиданно одна из сестер умирает, и поместье переходит к наследникам, после чего, естественно, замок тут же, без сожаления, переходит в руки прагматиков, ничего с ним общего не имеющих.
