Late at night, Isaac, a young Jewish man whose hobby is photography, is asked by the butler of a wealthy mansion to take a picture of his daughter Angela, who died young, because the photographer happens to be away. The request is to take a picture of his daughter, Angelica, who died young. Isak is taken to the house and points his camera at Angelica lying on the sofa in her room. However, as soon as he looks through the viewfinder, Angelica opens her eyelids and smiles at him. Surprised, Isak takes the picture and leaves the mansion immediately. The next morning, when he develops the film, Angelica smiles at him as if she is alive again. At night, Isak wakes up from his sleep, and this time she appears on the balcony, and the two of them soar into the air, floating between the trees and over the river, and eventually ascend into the night sky...
