Synopsis
"A film about a film that is yet to begin." It's a love story worn down by time. While preparing for a new film, a director wanders, searching in vain for the courage to carry on. He dives into memories of his youth, when spontaneous intuition fed his inspiration. Help, however, comes from very close – from his wife, who loves him and knows how to give him confidence.
