Dans le convoi d'un Trans-Europ-Express qui roule entre Paris et Anvers, une équipe de cinéma imagine le scénario d'un film. Un jeune homme aux pulsions sexuelles exacerbées doit prendre livraison d'une valise contenant de la drogue. Très vite, scénario et réalité ne font plus qu'un, ce que le style de la réalisation exprime par des allers et retours entre séquences, les unes en reprenant d'autres avec des variantes de l'action qui expriment les version variables imaginées par l'auteur du scénario, Alain Robbe-Grillet, et cela dans le décor même du train.
