The characters in the film try to understand the bioenergetic and informational influence of works of art on the psychological state of the viewer and listener. Scientists, psychologists, psychotherapists, a composer, and an artist seek answers to the question: why do some works depress, others pacify, and still others evoke feelings of joy? Is it possible to use this to treat people?
