Jouer Trailer
Seated in his kitchen, the QuĂ©bĂ©cois novelist GaĂ©tan Soucy recounts the personal circumstances and dramas that propelled him to write. In parallel, unusual scenes unfold: a man records his thoughts about a deceased friend, two ​“madmen” engage in a curious duel in the common room of an old hospital… Gradually, these seemingly unrelated worlds converge to form a baroque and labyrinthine tableau that dissolves the boundaries between reality and fiction. A film as poignant as it is unsettling about friendship, mourning, legacy, artistic creation, and the mystery of existence…
