Description

Four friends spend eight days on holiday on a Mediterranean island. One of them has brought a manuscript sent by a certain Simon Laquedem. Its reading provokes conflicting reactions among the group. An angel announces to Simon that he is the new Abraham, the new Moses, the new Mohammed and that God wishes to speak to him. God appears to him and in simple, clear and occasionally lively terms explains the origins of the universe, the big-bang, space and time, water, air, light, the tragically fleeting life of man, their thought and history.
