Robert Pinget's adaptation of Samuel Beckett's radio play marked the first incursion into television of what was then considered avant garde theatre. Neither film nor theater. There is no plot: the only action concerns a lame old woman's trip to the train station to pick up her blind husband, and their return home in the rain at dusk. And these two destinies became our own. François Mauriac, Le Figaro Littéraire
