Adaptation of the novel "Bartleby the Scrinener: A story of Wall Street" (1853) by Hermann Melville.

The film depicts, in an anecdotal, quasi-anthropological style, the efforts of a group of men in a desert to achieve some kind of social organisation. An opening title locates the action in Morocco, in 1911, the date evidently refers to the work of D.W. Griffith.

The movements, routines and gestures that compose an ordinary day in the life of an ordinary housewife, recorded in the minutest every more oppressive details, become a sort of catalyst by the unique and simple means of having the woman played by a man with long hair and a slightly androgynous look.
