To music by John Coltrane, the film mixes quick shots of common objects or still lifes and the fragments of a filmed diary showing some friends on vacation in Torcello, in the Venetian lagoon, walking around reading the newspaper, chatting during lunch, cutting vegetables, playing chess. The shots, taken without a tripod, have a decidedly impressive visual intensity: backlit silhouettes, bright portraits, fruit and shells reminiscent of still lifes. In a convulsive and irrepressible way, with the flow of visual assonances, The little boredom intertwines the pictorial formalism of the compositions with the scenes of everyday life.
