Synopsis:

Harry, an aging draughtsman long past the peak of his career, is offered the job of a lifetime: a misterious lady lures him, "der beste", into her castle-like abode for a last and highly paid assignment. Once in her presence, Harry finds her to be a perfectionist strangely concerned about preserving her anonymity. Nevertheless, he accepts the job of drawing an unusual picture for her. On receiving his reward, which is inside a small parcel, Harry leaves the castle. However, having forgotten his hat, he is forced to return and thus witnesses a dumbfounding scene. Stunned and bewildered, Harry finds that there is even more to come, for inside his parcel there is yet another surprise awaiting its discovery...
