Widows on an island is what this film is about. Agnès listens to them, films them, each one of them talks about her emotions, her feelings or her souvenirs. Many of them were married to fisher-men sailors and one can feel their experience of living on an island « surrounded by water on all sides ». They express their feelings to Agnès, a widow herself.
