At the point where the ocean waves crash against the shore, two men appear, bearing the marks of the heavy water on their bodies. They are carrying a massive wooden wardrobe on their shoulders. With this heavy load—whose mirrored door reflects the absurdity of their surroundings—they set off toward the streets of a seemingly quiet but unfamiliar town. In this short drama and black comedy—an early experiment in his career—Roman Polanski masterfully juxtaposes the absurd with the ordinary. Carried amid the indifferent stares of the townspeople, that cumbersome wardrobe is a silent discord that clashes with the monotony of everyday life.
