Bruno and Noël are a pair of avant-garde musicians who construct
electronic music by processing fragments of ambient sound. They
manage to find a producer, Carole Stevens, to market their work, but
Bruno's moody persona minimises the likelihood of them getting a
worthwhile contract. Meanwhile, Bruno is looking for a girlfriend
and succeeds in finding someone on a phone chat network. The
girl, Lisa, agrees to meet him in a hotel room, where she offers to
make love to him providing they do so in complete darkness. After
a few liaisons of this kind, Lisa mysteriously disappears. With
only his recollection of her voice and the sounds she made in bed with
him, Bruno resolves to track her down...
