A whistleblowing documentary parable about Nothing, narrated – in simple childish verse – by Iggy Pop. One day, Nothing runs away from home, tired of being misunderstood. There follows a feelgood adventure in which Nothing roams the world like a fallen prophet, denouncing our delusions and admitting its own, all the while trying to persuade us of its natural, necessary and ultimately constructive role. Each shot, sound, cut or line in the film represents a connotation, manifestation or quirky point of view of Nothing; each twist in the plot – a mirrored slice of our own lives.
