Rustles and steps

- Move forward a little.

Again.

OK. This way, it's okay.

Turn around a little. That's it, like that.

Uh.

See there, behind me?

This is the living room you came from.

The staircase is right there, on the left.

On your right,

you have the kitchen window.

Uh.

On the table here,

you have the knife.

And you see the mark in tape,

really on your right?

This is where the shadow of the beast will appear.

At one point you look over and see her. OK?

- OK.

- Uh...

Loosen your hair a little.

That's it, like that. Perfect.

And take two, three steps towards me.

That's it, like that.

How are you? - Yes, I am fine. I am ready.

- We are going to go there.

And it's.

when you want to.

- THANKS.

Pauline,

you haven't seen my husband?

- He was in the other living room a few minutes ago.

- You haven't seen Georges?

- Yes. He was in the living room on the other side five minutes ago.

Tell me, why at parties,

we always try to find the people we live with

and that we see every day?

Little laugh

- You are having fun? - A lot.

But I lost my husband. - What luck! Enjoy it.

Discreet laughter

- I'm taking advantage of it.

Too much.

- I saw him go that way. He must have gone to see the workshop.

- L'atelier?

- You haven't met Anton? - No.

- Anton!

Gabrielle.

We lent him a room so he could work.

Tonight he shows things.

Go for it. It's powerful,

and as dark as the times are bright.

Curious contrast.

- In this case.

- I leave you.

- It's over there? - Yes.

After the back lounge, on the right.

I can take you if you want.

- Thanks, but I can manage.

- You don't want a drink first?

- I have a drink.

- And a glove that hides something.

I bow.

I hope that pleases you.

- I am sure.

THANKS.

Discreet conversations

(British accent) - What do you think?

- It's violent. Psychiatric.

Quite beautiful, I think.

- He could paint you.

- No way. I hold on to my soul.

- You remember, don't you?

- What?

- That we have already met.

- Oh yes?

- In Rome. Years ago.

Three years ago.

A dinner,

organized after a performance of Madame Butterfly.

You were with your uncle and your aunt.

You were wearing a fairly dark green dress, with a bun.

- It was in Naples.

Not in Rome.

It was six years ago.

I was with my mother and my brother.

In fact, you don't remember me at all.

- Maybe I'm a little vague on the details.

But on the other hand, I remember you very well.

- That much? - Yes.

- And why?

- Because you told me something that I never forgot

and who, since then, often makes me think of you.

Something you told me on the way home.

You have forgotten?

- We spoke in French?

- I think we were mixing languages.

I don't know if I'm doing the right thing by trying to remind you, then.

- But yes, go ahead.

- It's risky to bring someone back to what they once were.

But if you moved away from it, so much the better.

So, did this happen?

It's something we can't forget.

So, did what you told me about happen?

- I think I know what you're talking about.

I had forgotten having shared such an intimate confidence.

- Am I the only one who knows?

- Yes.

- I never told anyone.

- It's very good like that.

- I'm sorry to disturb you in your conversation,

but I can't resist.

You are Gabrielle Monnier, right?

- Indeed.

- So, I just wanted to confess my admiration to you.

You are a magnificent musician.

A pianist of rare sensitivity and...

(So.)

- THANKS.

It touches me infinitely.

- Since I dare to speak to you, I dare to tell you:

I would love to dress you one day.

- Get dressed? - Yes, I am Paul Poiret.

- Oh?

In this case, I happily accept.

I am very flattered.

- But not as much as me.

I won't bother you any longer.

- Do you still have the same feeling?

- What did I tell you?

Exactly.

- Something you felt very young.

Very deep within you.

The feeling of being destined

to a rare, strange, terrible thing, which was bound to happen sooner or later.

You were convinced that she would end up glaring at you.

I think that's the word you used: thunderbolt.

- Did I tell you anything else?

- That you do not want to commit to a relationship

since a disaster was going to happen

and reduce you to nothing.

You and all your loved ones.

- It's true.

Nothing has happened to answer your question.

- And you still got married?

- How do you know?

- The shape of a wedding ring under your glove...

- Obviously.

- And your husband?

Where is he?

- I don't know...

Yes, I took the risk.

But I was young and...

romantic.

And now,

It all seems very distant to me.

- Then you told me about something that was going to happen,

like a hidden beast,

and destroy everything in you and around you.

- What did you answer?

- Nothing.

It scared me a little.

But maybe I was too young.

- Gabrielle?

Beauty, how are you?

- GOOD.

- Have you seen the paintings in the workshop?

- Yes.

- Is George there?

- In one of the living rooms, I imagine.

- All right.

Well, I'll go say hello, then.

Good visit.

Intriguing music

- It's not always easy being married.

- Excuse me,

I am going to leave you.

- Please,

stay with me.

Chamber music

Did you think I was crazy?

- No. I think I understood.

- You mean my obsession

could correspond to a certain reality?

- To a certain reality,

Yes surely.

Today, I could watch for this beast near you.

But if you're no longer afraid, it's useless.

- You are serious?

- Completely.

- I can pretend to be afraid

if you want to watch.

By my side.

- It was to me that you revealed this confidence,

even if you don't remember it anymore.

You entrusted me with something.

Even if this is all far away.

- And you?

Doesn't that scare you anymore?

- Of course yes.

But I can take that risk.

I'm not so young now.

- I am very touched.

Viennese Waltz

- Are you okay, darling?

Where were you? - I was looking for you.

- I am here.

How are you? - Yes.

- If you had to describe your skills,

your training and your personal project, what would you say?

- I don't know. I am fast, intuitive.

As for training, I never really had any,

because...

I moved to the United States when I was nine years old.

- For what?

- I don't remember very well, I was very little.

My parents said that the climate had become unbearable.

They were scared.

And then,

when we arrived in the United States, the civil war broke out.

And so, we left.

- Yes, in Chengdu, for nine years. You didn't go to school there.

- Non.

But I still learned a lot on my own.

I learn rather easily.

Mysterious growl

- And your personal project?

- To work.

If possible

somewhere WHERE I can feel useful.

- Useful?

- Yes, useful.

Something other than what I'm doing now.

Intriguing music

Not approaching

- Pardon!

Do you work here?

- No, I'm sorry.

- Ah! You're like me, then.

- I don't know what you are like.

- A little lost.

- In the building

or in life?

- In the building already, that's for sure.

I'm coming for an interview, I don't know where it is.

- I'm coming out.

It's just behind, to the right.

- It went well?

- It's even.

I have to go to work.

Good luck.

- THANKS.

Metallic squeak

Mysterious chiming

*-Minus 4012.

- If you had to give me a good reason

so that we can help you find another job?

- I am smart.

I know how to do lots of things.

- Today, there is no shortage of intelligence .

- The intelligence you speak of still lacks humanity.

- The intelligence I speak of saved humanity.

- I'm talking about humanity in the human sense.

Of human presence.

- Artificial intelligence has become responsible and fair.

So, ultimately, human. This is immense progress.

- Honestly, I find it difficult to talk about progress,

with 67% unemployment and 20% mechanical work.

They call us useless people.

I don't know if you realize the contempt?

I'm just asking for work that matches my abilities.

- Do you hear your anger?

You have far too much affect for certain jobs.

As it stands, you will only be able to do work in which the affect

cannot interfere with the result.

Like the one you have today.

- Because we have to choose between work and affects?

- For certain jobs, yes.

Particularly those which involve responsibility and reflection.

And these are obviously the ones that interest you.

Today, there are no more biased decisions

taken by someone who is upset or depressed.

Look at the calm.

- Yes. Well, I don't know if that's a good thing.

- Do you want to relive the same thing as in 2025?

The same dramas?

- No, of course.

- Don't be paranoid, or worse, sentimental.

All this is very recent, hence your distrust.

But the worker will readjust as he always has.

We have already suggested that you dive back into your past lives

to clean your DNA.

And you refused.

- I've just

a little afraid of the consequences.

- In which way?

- I am afraid of.

to no longer be able to feel.

- It's a rumor, that.

Obviously we can still feel.

But we feel more serenely, that's all.

Nature sounds

Crows calling nearby

Oppressive note

- You know, stop being afraid, darling. You can always fuck.

Besides, I fuck more than you.

It's a little different, but it's not necessarily worse.

This is another thing.

And it’s been scientifically proven to work.

You can trust science.

- Science has proven absolutely nothing.

And we absolutely don't know how it works,

artificial intelligence.

In any case, I am sure

that it cannot be objective.

- Yes. We discover what Buddhism has always known, that's all.

You go through everything that has damaged you for centuries,

and you get rid of it.

- Oh yes?

And when you wake up, do you remember it?

- Oh yes.

And I can tell you: it works.

- In any case, I don't want to become

neither a Buddhist nor a robot.

- No, but I haven't become a robot.

Simply, my emotions no longer make me suffer.

You have nothing to lose

and everything to gain.

- And.

Exactly, I have to lose.

- What?

What do you have to lose, for example?

- Not maybe

never experience a strong feeling.

- Great novels are fantasy, darling.

In any case, I don't regret it for a second.

Fall.

Let go.

And above all, you have the right to more interesting work

than checking the temperature of the data plates.

So, if we offer it to you, that might mean

that, in some way, you are worth it.

Like me.

- By purifying your DNA,

you cleanse old trauma

which you have inherited for centuries

and which have contaminated your subconscious.

It's like regulating hormones,

but at a much higher level.

You understand?

- Yes I think.

- As I told you, we can help you.

We can help you get rid of your affects.

- Of all?

Of all?

It's just that I have a very deep feeling

that something terrible is going to happen.

Kind of a disaster.

And that I will have to face it.

Be there.

Even though it terrifies me.

- You see? Affects, that’s it.

It’s this fear, for example.

Nothing serious can happen anymore. Rest assured.

All the disasters are behind.

- What should I do to rehabilitate?

- You close your eyes.

You reopen them. That's all.

Do it.

- What?

- Close your eyes.

Reopen them.

It's going to be like this.

Nothing more.

Dark note

Metallic rumbles in the distance

Mysterious signal

- Do not move.

You're going to get a sting in your ear.

It's absolutely not painful.

- I'm a little scared.

- This is going to go very well.

You will close your eyes, and that's it.

Nothing more.

Close your eyes.

- Close your eyes.

- Do you find me old?

- Non.

- Obviously a little.

- How old were you?

- Is that a fancy way of asking how old I am today?

He's laughing. - No way. No way.

Excuse me.

It's none of my business, but.

The dolls,

Is this your idea?

Soft piano music

- Because as a child, I was a little girl?

Non.

I'm only interested in music.

- But how did your husband get into doll making?

- A bit by chance.

He was studying law.

And one morning he woke up and he said to me:

“I had this dream.

“I want to make dolls.

"I saw them."

So.

-And so you married him.

- And so, now we have this factory.

- When did you get married?

- Leaving the conservatory.

I didn't want to stay at home,

I wanted to make music, go out,

enjoy the world.

Oddly enough, getting married gave me freedom.

- Is that why you didn't have children?

- How do you know?

- I inquired.

- Indeed.

At the moment, I don't have one, but.

I want some.

And I will have some.

- I have no doubt about it.

Soft music

- And you, then?

- I find Paris more stimulating than London at the moment.

- You are not answering my question.

- Moi?

Let's just say I'm a big loner.

- I'm hungry.

I want pancakes.

Do you think the Seine will rise again?

That we will have to leave Paris?

- If Paris becomes Venice, that suits me.

It will make the city even more mythological.

- And we will even be happy to die here.

- We'll get you some pancakes.

- And jam.

Jam and pain au chocolat.

- This may be the catastrophe you feared.

- That Paris is engulfed?

Non,

I don’t think that’s what scares me the most.

- So you're still afraid?

- Well, you tell me,

since you will be at my side, watching.

- I promise you.

- I seemed scared in Naples?

- Non.

You said everything very calmly.

I have a bit of a stupid question , but...

how do you invent a doll's face?

How do we choose our expression, our features?

- It's not a stupid question.

In fact, there are basics that we do not question.

And others who evolve.

- Are there several expressions?

A happy doll.

A terrified doll.

A sad doll.

- There is only one,

quite neutral,

without too much emotion,

that can please everyone.

- And what does this neutral doll look like?

- A little bit about that.

Intriguing notes on the piano

Mysterious music

I can show you around, if you want.

I really like this place.

- I would be happy to.

I would love to hear you play.

- I am not ready.

- What are you working on at the moment?

- Schonberg.

I am suffering.

- Is it that difficult?

- For me, yes.

It's full of invention, but.

it's hard to find the feeling inside that.

– Maybe that’s what’s exciting.

Because honestly, there are things that have become impossible.

- Like what?

- Precisely, the illusion of feeling.

The illusion of music that satisfies itself.

- But the feeling is the beginning of the emotion.

- Not necessarily.

It can come in another way.

- Let's admit that there is an interest in making music without feeling,

what remains to be proven,

what would that be?

Very cold compositions?

- Not necessarily.

This would provide an experience

which is less classic.

Primitive.

An unprecedented experience.

May I.

see your hands?

Are pianists' hands different?

Or is it just their sensitivity?

They are very beautiful.

- THANKS.

I have to go back home,

it's late.

Majestic music

Crescendo of distressing music

- What were you playing just now?

- A piece by Schoenberg.

- You are doing well.

- I don't know.

I don't feel like I understand everything yet.

- We don't always have to understand everything, right?

- I guess not.

- We're fine without electricity, actually.

I've never seen the living room like that.

It's beautiful.

We should go on a trip.

We haven't been alone for a long time.

You do not want?

- Doesn't that scare you?

- What?

- To be alone with me?

Not approaching

- I like being scared.

I feel alive.

Gabrielle.

I would like to tell you something.

- Do you want me to close the shutters, sir?

- No, I will, thank you. See you tomorrow.

- I still have a little work to do.

The footsteps recede.

A door creaks then closes.

Scary music

Clinking of glass objects

Frantic screams

The pigeon coos.

- Everything is fine. Everything is fine.

He went out.

I am here.

It's nothing, it's a pigeon.

He went in, he went out.

(I love you.)

(-Me too.)

- I keep thinking about your premonition, you know.

- Yes?

- The disaster may have already occurred.

- That's to say?

- You married a boring man.

- He's not.

No way.

And I really like it.

- Maybe you're just afraid of being alone.

- I love solitude.

I even need it often.

- So, that's not it?

- Non.

- In this case,

I have a proposition.

But you may find it absurd.

- Certainly no more than what's happening right now.

What do you have in mind?

- If you have a feeling,

that is to say a premonitory intuition,

maybe I can.

accompany you to a clairvoyant.

- Do you know one?

- Otherwise, I wouldn't have offered it to you.

- I don't know...

Isn't it dangerous to know the future?

- I do not believe.

It all depends on how you interpret it.

And what you do with it.

- I don't know if we should rush things.

- All this has been going on for years, I don't call it rushing.

- It's true.

- SO?

- SO?

- You can take it lightly.

SO?

(-Alright then.)

Majestic music

We left before the end. It's not serious?

- No way. I was starting to get bored.

- This evening, we didn't feel the drama of loss in her.

The one who played Butterfly was more moving in Naples.

- Do you see it like that?

An endless drama of loss?

- That's all she's faced with.

The loss of a father,

from his family,

of his own identity,

of his love.

And it will ultimately lead her to suicide.

Let's protect ourselves from this.

Intriguing music

- I hope you don't want to know if Paris is going to be swallowed up,

because I can't answer this question anymore.

- No, that's not why I came. - So much the better.

- This is the first time I've done this.

How exactly does it happen?

- Things are going pretty well, in general.

- I ask you questions and you answer me, right?

- Do you know that I do hypnosis?

- No I did not know.

- Oh?

- And how much does it cost?

- It's already paid for.

What exactly are you coming for?

- It is difficult to explain.

I have had anxiety for a long time.

A feeling.

For years,

a feeling

that something is going to happen,

but which, at the same time, does not happen.

And I wanted to know. - A love story?

- Non.

- You seem confident.

- Yes.

I married a man I love and who loves me.

- Tell me about him.

- He was someone who helped me a lot when I was younger.

Precisely when this anxiety was suffocating me.

Besides, I know he's still worried about me.

Even if that fear has gone away.

We get on very well.

It concerns something else.

(-chut!)

Don't influence me.

- But I just wanted to know.

Is there a risk?

- Of course.

There is definitely a risk.

But a risk is beautiful, it’s strong, it’s alive.

Close your eyes.

An intriguing note

Close your eyes.

And listen to me.

There is a natural disaster,

but it's not the one everyone is talking about.

There is a beast.

A beast ready to pounce.

There is also a pigeon,

but it's not that beast.

Pigeon,

it is a representation of the Holy Spirit.

He's a messenger.

It's a good sign.

Unless he comes into your house.

Dark notes

That means someone is going to die.

Maybe you, maybe a loved one.

Anxiety music

There is a man.

But he can only make love in his dreams.

There is a difficult choice to make.

A feeling of impossibility to do it,

without the possibility of destroying everything.

Like an inner pain

which slowly eats away at you and burns you.

But the most destructive,

it’s this non-choice.

Intriguing music

On a table,

a knife that you take.

A man in the next room.

A disaster.

But it's not the one you're thinking of.

It's because you hesitate that there will be a catastrophe.

You should not.

We have to leave.

It's far too dangerous.

He can only make love in his dreams.

At three,

you can slowly open your eyes.

And,

two,

three.

An intriguing note

- I stopped by the factory this morning,

and the electricity is miraculously not cut off.

These walls

are very humid. But there is no infiltration.

On the other hand, this wall

has a crack.

Water from the street could flow into the workshop.

Light steps

Squeak

The door closes.

- What if the water rises again?

- For now, it should be fine. But when the flood has subsided,

The damaged part of the wall will have to be repaired .

Wingbeats

- Unless he comes into your house.

A man in the next room.

- Afterwards, what I would like is to recover this floor, here,

which overlooks the street.

I tell myself that with a minimum of work.

Dark melody on the piano

With a minimum of work, we could open one store and sell the other.

- My love,

I know you tried everything to accompany me

in a path that would be personal to me,

towards a confidence, towards a possibility,

at a time when I was not able

to do nothing, I was so paralyzed.

And those years were the happiest of my life.

But I have an inner pain that slowly eats away at me and burns me.

That of feeling a part of me that begins to move away from us,

the difficulty of retaining it and reuniting with you,

the intuition of immense loss, impossible to imagine,

and my resistance to this tear.

I tried to hold on

all those months that seemed pale to you.

I tried to be there, to believe in us,

but we couldn't escape

to this panic, to this evil.

And everything started to send us back there,

the day and the night.

What has become most unbearable is seeing ourselves unhappy,

while we loved each other so much, carried each other,

since day one and all these years.

I also feel like I'm walking in an unreal world.

I can never tell you that you are no longer part of my life,

because in every intimate plot,

my substance is all that we have been together.

Dark melody on the piano

Saying “goodbye” is too difficult for me.

I hope you will pass me this weakness,

because all these words already hurt so much.

Slam

Deep breathing

- Good morning.

I am Kelly doll.

I'm part of the protocol.

I'm here to make sure everything is okay

and accompany you.

I'm like a nurse.

(-Oh fuck!)

- Can we address each other in a less formal manner?

Come on, come on.

I'll take you.

Crow calls

Barking in the distance

Calls of various wild animals

I understand that you keep things to yourself.

And I'm not asking you to tell everything.

It's a very special experience to go through all that.

I just want to know how you feel.

- I feel good.

- You don't look like it. What's the matter?

- There is nothing.

- Tell me.

- It's just that I don't want to become like you.

- What do you mean, like me?

- Like you.

You're not even going to die.

Sorry excuse me. That's not what I meant.

It's just that you bore me.

- I have a lot of possibilities, you know.

Take advantage of me.

I can tell stories.

I also make puns.

Do you want to play something?

- Not really, no?

- You want to make love with me?

- You're a little creepy, you know.

- What do you want to do, then?

- To dance?

- OK.

Let's dance.

- Here?

*Soul rock music

- Hey!

T'as l'air cool.

- THANKS.

- Do you want a cigarette? - No thanks.

- Here you can smoke.

- Ah? OK.

- All the music is from 1972, I love it.

- And why 1972?

- I don't know, but it's crazy.

- Enjoy!

But what is this here?

- There's no real name.

Here you can do lots of things that you can't do elsewhere.

It's like an airlock.

What do you want to do?

- I want to pee.

*Decreasing

- The purification center. - Yes.

- What are you doing here?

"Yuki Ga Furu (Tombe la neige)" (Savior Adam)

- I am with a friend.

- So this happened?

Have you decided to try the experience?

- I didn't go there.

- For what?

- I don't know. An intuition.

I think I don't like that they call it "purification".

I don't feel impure, actually.

- I too am starting to doubt.

Yesterday I was certain of my decision, and today,

it's the contrary.

So, I think I can't stand my anxiety attacks anymore.

- It makes anxiety come alive.

- Maybe.

But I thought about the Stoics.

Fulfillment is in the lack of passion.

- Do you know Madame Butterfly?

The opera.

- Not really.

- Look at my hand.

Take the,

Please.

- You have beautiful hands, yes.

- What are you going to do, then?

- Maybe we can give ourselves a few more days.

- Maybe yes.

I had never seen people

dance like that.

- Me neither.

That's why I come here often.

- I'll come back then.

*Slow music

- Who were you talking to?

- One day, I left my husband for this man.

- Wow!

You did well.

- I don't know.

- You still have this feeling

that something terrible is going to happen?

- No, not really anymore.

Well, I don't think so.

- Not really anymore?

- No, I don't have it anymore.

- I'll show you a picture.

You're going to tell me what that means to you.

- What is this?

- You can open your eyes.

The image is no longer there.

It's a difficult test,

but it shows where you are.

There is something that still resists.

It happens sometimes.

You will have another session in two days.

Don't worry.

- How long did it last in total?

- Apparently, ten minutes.

- And do you remember everything exactly?

- Yes, it's quite disturbing.

However, it is difficult to know the degree of reality of things.

Mysterious chiming

- Believe me, it's real.

- It's scary. I'm hesitant to start again.

*-Minus 4012.

- What do you really fear? Ask yourself honestly.

- I am torn between the will

to continue in the past

and the fear of ruining the present.

- It is continuing in the past that will allow you

not to spoil the present, precisely.

Either way, losing your loved one is so excruciating that...

even when things go well,

you are still in anguish of the loss to come, then.

You might as well not live it. You're so much better.

You get rid of the pain.

- Certainly.

In any case, I don't want to end here.

I'm going to turn myself into a wardrobe.

- You're better than that, yes.

- Say, Sophie.

Do you think we'll meet one day?

- I don't know.

But I love you, darling.

- Me too.

Squeak

- I am late?

- No way.

Let's go, Bertrand.

- Hello Sir. This way.

We are in the midst of a manufacturing transition.

We are going to move on from the classic porcelain doll,

to a new celluloid doll.

You will be able to see a little of both.

We make 30 dolls per day, for a production of 7,000 per year.

There are 12 employees here at the company and three who work from home.

On celluloid, everything is done

using a new method of blowing into the mold.

A pasty liquid is introduced, then the mold is removed.

And it gives a plate like this.

- Fascinating.

- Once they have removed all the members from the plates,

We sand gently so that it is soft.

We call it trimming.

- It's true that the skin is very soft.

Intriguing music

It smells like vanilla.

- We also continue the classic porcelain doll.

The transition will happen gradually over a few years.

It's this way.

No, don't smoke, please.

Celluloid is very flammable.

- Excuse me.

- That's the problem with this material,

but we arrive at much more realistic dolls .

There, we give them a little color.

Next, we finalize the dolls' heads.

- They took your eyes as a model?

- Maybe.

- Over here we have lockpicking.

The bodies are made of papier-mâché

and we assemble all the members to have a complete doll.

There, on the other side, is the doll clinic.

- The clinic? - Yes.

We repair broken dolls.

Thank you, Bertrand.

Soft music

Shall I show you the showroom?

- Gladly.

What scares you so much?

You can tell me now.

- I don't know.

It's hard to put a feeling into words.

- You can trust me.

Try.

- I spent my life thinking only about terrible things

that I can't tell.

- Because they are too terrible?

- Yes.

- We don't hear anything anymore.

- It's 7:30 p.m.

Everybody is gone.

- What is stronger?

Your fear?

Or your love for me?

- Because you think I love you?

- Show me your hand again.

- I'm sorry.

I can't.

- You can't or don't want to?

- Both.

- Do not move.

Powerful crackling

Glass shatters.

Is there another exit?

- Yes maybe.

There is a sort of gallery underneath. This way, come!

- Where is it?

- Here!

It's not long,

10-15 meters.

Glass fragments

- If it's the only way out, you have to swim underwater.

I'm taking all that away from you. You can't swim with that weight.

I'll go first.

If I see that it's not possible, I'll come back.

We still have a few minutes left.

In two minutes, if you don't see me, you're swimming.

- Yes.

- All right?

- Non.

(Non!)

I do not want.

(I do not want.)

- It'll be OK. (-I do not want.)

- It's only a few meters.

I'll come back if there's a problem.

(-Yes.) - I'll be back.

I will be back.

(Gabrielle) - Saying goodbye is too difficult.

I hope you will pass me this weakness,

because all these words already hurt so much.

We are not made the same

and it's very beautiful because we get along so well.

You need to experience absolute love.

I need to pursue a form of sweet reverie,

while telling myself that our bond will not be cut forever

and that something, one day, will reinvent itself.

Otherwise, I fall.

- Health.

It's Louis Lewanski.

I'm in town here,

It’s really a beautiful day.

But like I always said,

a beautiful environment is absolute hell if you have to experience it alone.

And unfortunately, I have been alone for a very long time.

I've been at UC Santa Barbara for two years.

And in two years, I experienced nothing but loneliness and despair.

And my problem.

It's the girls.

There are so many beautiful girls here.

But none give me a chance.

I do not know why.

I don't know why I disgust you so much.

That does not make any sense.

I do everything I can to be attractive.

I dress well. I'm sophisticated.

I am wonderful.

I have a nice car.

Well, way prettier than 90% of the people at my college.

I am polite.

I am the ultimate gentleman.

And you girls don't give me a chance.

I do not know why.

I make an effort to dress well.

These sunglasses cost $300.

Giorgio Armani.

I put them on... See?

Look how gorgeous I am!

I'm 30 years old and I've never had a girlfriend.

I'm still a virgin.

I never had the chance to sleep with a girl,

to sleep with a girl, to kiss a girl.

Don't even hold his hand.

I don't have a girl's number on my cell phone.

And it's so unfair because...

I am wonderful.

I deserve girls.

Health.

It's Louis Lewanski.

It is May 7, 2014.

I'm admiring the view of my father's neighborhood.

What a beautiful day,

not a single cloud in the sky.

I hear children playing.

It reminds me of my childhood.

It was the most beautiful period of my life.

I wish I was still a child

and be able to live without knowing that the world is cruel.

When you're a kid, you don't have to worry about being attractive

or to please girls.

And when you hit puberty,

your life becomes happiness on earth

or pure hell.

My life has become pure hell.

No girl likes me

and I hate them all for that.

- Super.

- Don't touch your mouth.

She's sexy.

- THANKS.

- Hi. It's Louis Lewanski.

I'm inside my car, looking at the beach.

And my eyesight is ruined by it!

In front of me, walking alone on the beach,

there is a young couple.

They are about my age.

I was enjoying the view

before they come over and start kissing.

Why can't I experience this?

Look at them!

Holding hands.

Sigh

It's torture to watch, but I have to watch.

I have to film this.

I have to show the world why life is unfair.

I have to show everyone why I hate humanity.

Because no girl wants to do that with me.

It's awesome!

But my mother searches me, I don't want her to take them.

- Really? Whisper of approval

- When I arrive at their house, I raise my arms and she searches me.

Like at the airport!

She's crazy. I'm going to the metal detector!

- No way! - Tu imagines?

She sees terrorists everywhere.

That's crazy.

I see you at Fractal? - Yes.

There was an earthquake earlier.

And it was great.

I wish it would have lasted all night.

It was great.

NOW,

I'm parked in front of a house.

I look at a girl who is at home.

A super beautiful girl.

We spoke earlier.

She wanted me to come to her house, supposedly to reassure her.

But she's like the others.

She would never want to fuck with me.

She would have turned me on before showing me that I disgust her.

I was afraid of what I had to do, because...

I felt sorry.

I don't know why, but she moved me and I didn't do anything.

It's absurd.

I didn't move any of them.

I can't be moved.

I can't be moved or pity!

She wouldn't have felt sorry for me!

And then, I don't want pity.

I deserve these girls.

I faltered, but I will falter again.

I said it: today is the day of punishment.

On the contrary.

- So, how are you.

I had a dream with you last night.

This is the first time I've done one.

You were in that club we went to together.

But this time the atmosphere was completely different.

There was no one there except you and a man.

You were dancing on the floor, against each other.

And then,

there was a song

“which spoke of a love enduring through the years.

An evergreen love.

- And what happened afterwards?

- I do not know anymore.

I just remember you,

so happy,

so sexy.

I want you.

- You're a doll, Kelly.

I have something to ask you.

I know you don't have the right,

but you need to help me find someone's contact.

Please.

- Would that really make you happy?

- Yes.

Louis? It's Gabrielle.

We said to ourselves that we would give ourselves a few days,

and we did well.

Every time we were in front of each other,

we were completely helpless.

We were lost because we were moved,

without really knowing why.

Now I know why.

We need to see each other.

As soon as possible.

Try to meet me tonight at the club where we last saw each other.

Tonight, if you can.

I will wait for you.

I beg you, come.

Is.

See you tonight.

Majestic orchestral music

- What is stronger?

Your fear or your love for me?

- Because you think I love you?

- Show me your hand again.

Intriguing orchestral music

Suspenseful orchestral music

*"It will be like this" (Gino Paoli)

- He came back. - Where?

- He's over here.

Do you want one?

*Decreasing assourdi

- It's weird.

There is absolutely no one there today.

- Yes, it's weird.

It's not bad that there's no one there.

- I agree.

After we saw each other last time,

I listened to Madame Butterfly in its entirety.

It’s true that it’s magnificent.

- I am happy to see you.

- Me too.

You wanted to tell me something? - Yes.

But it's hard to say.

I don't really know where to start.

- In this case, you have to start at the end.

“"Evergreen" (Roy Orbison)

- Do you want to dance with me?

We did well to wait.

- We listened to this piece together so much.

- But when?

- When he came out.

I reviewed all the images during the purification.

- What did you do?

- I got a job at the Ministry of Justice.

I have just started.

It's quite exciting.

You should apply.

It would be nice if we were together, don't you think?

We would see each other often, like this.

(-I love you.)

- Me too.

I'm happy to see you.

Howl

Sobs

- Non!
