The 4-minute film opens with the man (Rickard Cleason), dressed only in white underwear, surrounded by white disembodied manikins. His desire and curiosity is strong. The short continues when two black women enter the frame (Kia Rush and Alexis Brown). He is in control of their bodies; tying them up and painting them in white paint. The mysterious narrative concludes with the women in conversation with each other (albeit unheard and through subtitles); “You are beautiful”, “You too”. The closing shot shows them tied up at the back of the room with white bags over their heads.
