"Waiting for Godot" on ice and snow, without words. Against a barren winter landscape, a figure approaches: it's a man, pulling a small sleigh on which another man sits, plucking a dead bird. They stop to trade places; the one now on the sleigh takes out his knitting. Accidents, misunderstandings, disagreements, and an outright fight await our absurd protagonists as their trip to nowhere continues, first with one pulling, then the other. What if they were to lose the sleigh? What rules of civilization and partnership would guide them then?

A silent, shivering absurdity unfolds as two men swap places in a frozen void, trading labor for the rhythmic click of knitting needles. This wordless Beckettian nightmare finds its soul in the physical comedy of men struggling against an indifferent, white wasteland.
