Synopsis: Photographer Thomas took a group of photos about couples dating in a park in London. Later, the woman in the photo desperately wanted to get these negatives, which aroused Thomas' suspicion. Thomas kept enlarging the photo and finally believed that he saw a body and a man with a gun in the photo. He seems to have found the scene evidence of a murder case. Thomas tried to expose the murder case based on the vague evidence in the photo, but it ended in vain. At this time, his workshop was ransacked and the photos were gone. Thomas was originally convinced that technological inventions such as photography could enable him to acquire and conquer reality, so he was addicted to it. Later, he finally found that the relationship between reality and its replicas and people's illusion about the latter is uncertain. Finally, the students performed an imaginary tennis match, and Thomas had some inspiration. For those performers, the imaginary tennis is of course "real", just like the image in the photo as evidence is probably just an illusion for Thomas. The performance of the students became a symbol of Thomas' ideological transformation, and Thomas no longer tried to distinguish between reality and fantasy. He imagined that tennis was out of bounds, picked it up and threw it back to the students. Thomas didn't put down the camera when he picked up the imaginary ball. For him, there is no boundary between reality and its replicas and human fantasy.
