Story:
Accompanied by snoring, Songsong falls into the ruins of a workshop in the big industrial era, and sees people working, eating and sleeping under the supervision of the workshop ... Their bodies are alienated and hurt by the mechanical assembly line. San often sees his former workmates Songsong when he is working, and more scenes and characters begin to be difficult to distinguish between true and false. Moreover, he seems to have an inexplicable relationship with workshop leaders Miss Wei and female worker Qing, and everyone is imprisoned here because of some background. With the intensification of the production competition and contradiction between Saner and WANG Bin, a riot is brewing secretly ... Almost parallel to the above time, in another time and space, they are also experiencing another life. In the change of identity and times, the people, things and objects in the workshop are refactored into another story, and the audio-visual symbols are changed with new materials to reappear, and more time points appear ... There is not only one story, but another film is actually hidden in those noise stroboscopic.
