The video was filmed in the technique of pixilation, where the author appears herself and uses a variety of props, her voice heard in the background. She answers questions she receives from the surroundings; some of them she raises herself: Where did I come from? What am I working on? Who am I? In her search of identity, we can recognize characteristics of the younger generations who are unable to define themselves and their work uniquely.

Ticking, dripping and hissing is heard. These are snapshots of the start of a day in the life of a woman who is briefly reflected in the window of a washing machine in spin cycle.
