Driving along.
Suddenly, an accident. No collision, no explosion. A pedestrian car demands there be a limit, enough of this exceeding all bounds. Now there's a traffic jam. A strange cortege where time has stopped. The only scenery is a horizon made of anti-corrosive metal. But one must go on with one's life and continue living when time has no limits. Rebuild here because we're here forever. Immobilised in this corrugated metal you can never escape from. The car which was driving the bride and groom to the altar, the one which carried the sales rep to his next motel, the car that was taking the couple to their unavoidable dinner, the one that transported the murderer to his deed... they are all stuck. Six corrugated metal cells, ten private lives, ten lives that cross paths with each other.
