In Korea, a little Buddhist monk (really very dwarf-sized) dreams of the Western
world and secretly reads up on Western culture. When he meets the holidaying
French couple Napoleon Chirac and Jacqueline Bloodymary, he offers his
services as their guide, in the hope they will take him, a penniless monk, to
Europe. He whisks them off on a tour of the temples. Among the many twists and
turns, our stunned tourists encounter a suicidal horse and discover that a
person can also be a robot. Though our monk appears to them as the very spirit
of tourism, nothing is natural in this tour de force of Aira's twisted
imagination.
