The film is about portraying while being portrayed. Painter Liliane Klapisch sketches a portrait of Aviv in a sketchbook while Aviv films. Klapisch occasionally interrupts her work to look for a piece of chalk or a pencil – she checks, considers, and continues. Aviv's camera view alternates between the hands as they draw and the painter's scrutinizing gaze. The ways in which the two portraitists approach the world become visible during the gradual creation of the portraits, both drawn and filmed. An artistic encounter between two women, focused and attentive.
