Leopold is an investment broker who is so opposed to war that he transfers his entire personal portfolio into chocolates, reasoning that this is a product that can never be turned to war-like use. One day, Leopold feels the need to break his old routine and leaves wife and career behind in order to meditate on the meaning of life.
