Summary
In a cluttered room in a decrepit old château, a decrepit old man sits
writing in his diary. The man, Jean-René, receives a
letter that informs him he has only a very short time left to
live. That evening, he leads his faithful gardener, Pipo, into
his room and breaks the sad news to him. Bizarrely,
Jean-René declares that he will invite a theatre company to his
home to perform a play about the myth of Dionysis...
