The long-standing friendship between three men threatens to collapse. The trigger for this is a monochrome painting that one of the friends has bought for a huge sum. The dispute between the men ignites over this painting, in the course of which the lives of the three and their mutual relationships will change fundamentally: The first is enthusiastic about this white monochrome painting, the second fiercely opposes it, and the third, not wanting to spoil it with any of the others, does not want to take a stand. The painting thus serves as a catalyst with the help of which the author, in a very subtle and psychologically finely drawn way, analyses a situation that puts three men, their feelings, their state of mind, their friendship, indeed their entire existence so far, to the test and into question.
