A hotel and a beach in Normandy.
by zutterjp482022-06-18
7/10

"In one space a hotel and a beach in Normandy, a man who came back to the hotel to rememeber a past love, men and woman walking in the beach and observing this man. On the other space dos women speaking about life and love. A film about memories: besides their dialogues the characters share noices and scents: the sea , the song, the smell of the sea water , the fire siren. The photography is sober: empty streets, empty corridors of the hotel, the beach with sometimes some men and women...."
