A promising young man suddenly turns into a recluse and decides to live on the boat in the middle of the lake. His originality ceases to reside within the boundaries tolerated by his milieu. Reality, as seen by protagonist from the middle of lake, is surreal and behaviour of the people, who contact him by shouting from the shore, seems comic. But this would be if such a story really happened...
