In the form of a cinematographic correspondence, a
young woman left behind in China, awaits news from
her boyfriend that has gone away to London. This correspondence,
which is also a pretext to film Beijing in
summer, is filmed with nostalgia, since the young man
does not answer her, and she is anxious.
