Over close – ups of cutlery in drawers and drying racks a reading of a short poem of the same title is read by the poet. In it is a lament for a past not fully recognized and a tradition that escapes the reader’s present situation…the longed for marriage groom which he will never be. Humorous and poignant at the same time, the past coincides in the present like a knife.
