The film, like the play, focuses on Rosencrantz and Guildenstern and their actions (or lack thereof) within the play of Hamlet. The film begins as they travel on horseback to Elsinore, contemplating fate, memory and language. Rosencrantz finds and continually flips a coin which always comes up heads (until he loses the coin, which is replaced by their own coins), causing Guildenstern to conclude that something is wrong with reality.
