Miss Ida was a beautiful young girl horridly scarred by illness. She is now a middle-aged spinster wanting to hold on to her past. After seeing her village destroyed by a large machine she leaves and buys a plot of land on Long Island. Here she rebuilds her childhood village and lives in it alone. She is joined by a young boy who falls in love with a girl in a picture. Together they explore the idea of immortality.
