Comments

This is a short film made as a student project when Celine, Jean-Baptiste de Laubier were students at the prestigious La Fémis film school in Paris. Céline was in the screenwriting stream and Jean-Baptiste in the directing stream. 

This short film has been screened at a very small number of locations, such as the Clermont Film Festival in 2004 (http://my.clermont-filmfest.com/index.php?m=139&c=3&id_film=100049657&o=178) and Brisbane at GOMA in 2020, just as the pandemic took hold in the Céline Sciamma: Portrait of a Woman on Fire (see https://www.qagoma.qld.gov.au/whats-on/cinema/programs/past-programs/celine-sciamma-portrait-of-a-woman-on-fire). I'd hoped to get up to Brisbane to view the films there but, as with many of 2020's hopes and dreams, this was not possible...


This is the only clip that I have been able to find for this film.
