Canalisations souterraines

In a rural landscape a man is digging a canal between two sheets he’s put on the grass. He’s scooping the dirt on them. The camera records the surrounding landscape and the people that walk by once in a while. After he’s dug his canal, the man starts throwing away the sheets. Wearing a clown’s nose, the man seems to indicate that his hard labour is pointless, without any purpose at all.
