In a recycling factory in the north of France the machines dance, the workers join in song, and the truck drivers almost make a ballet. The film shows the process of recycling by impressive machines and by hand. We hear the noise that accompanies this process. Slowly the factory noise becomes a rhythm and a truck driver starts to sing a song for his love. He wants to build an island with the materials at hand, where they can be together to ‘sort things out ‘.
