The film has little plot to speak of, but is instead divided into three short episodes, each of which opens with a man desperately running away before being trapped in a dead end, where something out-of-the-ordinary occurs.
The first episode begins with an extended scene showing a man desperately running through an urban landscape, before coming to a dead end in a dark backstreet ally.
However, the woman comes back to life, and sings and dances with the man in the style of a musical film, telling him how they were fated to meet and how tragic it is that their love has to be so short.
Both stand-offs end with the two protagonists laughing at their predicament and entering a friendly embrace, before trying to shoot the other man.
All the men receive gunshot wounds and die, their bodies falling in positions similar to the couple in the first episode of the film.
