During the spring of 2020, two brothers, film director Paul (Vincent Macaigne), and music journalist Etienne (Micha Lescot), spend lockdown with their new partners Morgane and Carole in their family country home. In this suspended time they rediscover the rooms, objects and games of their youth, and reflect on parents, neighbours, and the landscape. Through the frozen world of memory and childhood, they confront their anxieties, bonds and clashes, in the strange pleasure of forced cohabitation. A reminder to us all just how much the pandemic has changed our lives.

The screening on Sunday 17th will be preceded by short film Women Reply (dir. Agnès Varda, 1975).

Notes by Marie-Pierre Richard.
