A giant white sperm whale is stranded in the middle of a city. Around the dying animal, people grumble and complain, cars are immobilized. In a school bus, a little girl learns a poem for school. When she goes out to see what is happening, she decides to approach the beast in order to find a passage. She will be intrigued and carried by the song of agony of the sperm whale and accompanying it will bring the people of the city, to consider the animal differently and to live a collective, strange and musical experience.
