A poetic exploration of the nighttime world and its inhabitants, including the "night-washers" themselves - a mysterious group of beings who roam the shadows, cleaning and maintaining the world's dark corners. Through their work, they imbue the night with a sense of order and purpose, reminding us that even in the darkest moments, there is always something to be done, always something to be cleaned.
