Russian writer Gorchakov who is trapped by his unhappy marriage seeks a Russian composer's material to write his biography. Here he meets Domenico, who declares that the world is coming to an end. Gorchakov finds this prophecy curiously more alluring than the possibility of a dead-end future. Domenico makes his speech on a square then burns his body. Following Domenico, Gorchakov attempts to walk through the pond with a burning candle in hand. He succeeds at last.
