A man is playing chess alone in his living room. He is in the middle of a difficult move. The cleaning lady starts bothering him with an increasingly loud crescendo of noise until....
"All this came out of the fact that I cannot stand the noise that my cleaning lady makes even though I like her very much. For this reason i invited her to clean at a women friend's house and there I made this short film. However, anyone may be hidden under the appearance of any cleaning lady, be it a murderer or a scientist" (Giorgio Comaschi).
