An absurd slapstick piece about a man immersed in his own dreams, refusing to accept everyday reality. He finds everyone obnoxious, children and lovers not excepted, and decides to fly off to the planet of his dreams. He turns into a spaceship and manages to land on "his" star — only to find a world as grey and noisy as on Earth.
