It is Paris 2005. Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre, and a Catholic priest by the name of Farther Brody have survived into older age. They are debating past and current trends in philosophy as they meet in a number of coffeehouses and night clubs throughout Paris. They are also tracing historical philosophy back to its roots within the present perspective of the American Iraqi War. Camus is now a Christian Catholic, Jean-Paul Sartre, still, the committed Marxist Socialist is on the verge of a mental breakdown and ripe for religious conversion. The stage is set for a tragic ending, leaving Camus questioning his faith.
