A fascinating look inside the mind of Andre, a retired dancer living with his daughter Anne and her husband. Or is he a retired engineer receiving a visit from Anne who has moved away with her boyfriend? Why do strangers keep turning up, and where has he left his watch? In a darkly humorous and deeply poignant translation, this is a tragi-comic mystery, a sobering and realistic family story.
