A boy, a washing machine and a plastic basin form a weird trio. Everyday life scenes become a magical variety show in which dance and acrobatics soon take on the size of a great enterprise.
Preparation for washing. Colourful clothes are thrown in, the machine is turned on, and "Short programme" begins.
In response to the throbbing sounds of the washing machine, our little friend begins to move on, off, and around it. The electric appliance does not remain aloof. It responds in its own way and, like a good partner, supports him in all his efforts. The plastic basin joins in. Accompanied by the music, they all reveal their secret talents in front of our eyes.
What a team!
And the great finale - with a total recall to reality.
Damned! All the clothes came out gray again!
