A number of people have words of a text written on their skin, hidden under their clothes. They embody it until the word is erased from their body, from their memory. They only know the word they carry, they do not know the totality of the text of which they are part. We don't know who they are, they make and unmake a text that is reconstructed in an infinite number of ways. 
In the video we can see a close-up of a fragment of a body, almost abstract, with a sign written in pen or felt-tip. The person tries to remain motionless in front of the camera, and so time runs in the video-image, simulating a still image.
