Set against the backdrop of a Swiss watch factory in 1877, Josephine meticulously crafts balance spindles essential for mechanical watches. Discontent with the factory's hierarchical structure, she becomes involved with the local anarchist movement, where she crosses paths with the dreamy Russian traveler, Piotr Kropotkin. Their relationship blossoms as society grapples with the implications of new technologies like photography and the telegraph, which are reshaping social dynamics. Amidst strolls in the woods, they ponder the nature of time, money, and government, questioning whether these constructs are mere illusions.
