Can Marguerite Duras cure us of madness? Can that woman who is mute in soul be crazy? This film, through analog casting, explores the representations of madness in silent films of the 20s and 30s.

They meet again and face off in a final duel to try to resolve a deception that separated them and led to the destruction of their family and the death of their father, a prestigious chess master. Fénix, a former world chess champion, defeated by a fraud committed in his past, lives trapped in dishonor and guilt. Héctor, also a chess master, remains trapped by anger and the need for revenge. When they meet again, they are forced to duel in a final chess match.
