Attempting to recapture the arrival and departure of his ex-lover, to decipher her meaning in his life, wayward husband Van Dressler sets off on an obsessional through a labyrinth of memories and dreams, traversing nightscapes and cityscapes, from the lot of a rundown hotel to the impeccable bathroom of his marital home and back again... Crowding in along the way, to help and confuse him, are an urban militiaman, a psycho-killer, a dying girl who may or may not exist, an assortment of shades, streetwalkers, insomniacs and severed heads... Until, finally, he comes to realise that he is suffering from the 'The Narcrosis Syndrome.'
