There is no offline version. When you run the movie, you can enjoy sequences and the sad story about love, emotions, and broken communication. Moving images are accompanied with MIDI sound and metaphoric (imaginational) english subtitles. There is, of course, a possibility to click on every sequence in the movie and to explore the links which are already predefined.

One can see what content is included in those sites (URLs). With the combination of the sm.N movie (story), subtitles, and sound, you can get a conceptual point of view on how to understand those external basic URLs and the meaning of the words. The URL becomes more than an address: the address becomes the content / territory.
