Ceci n’est pas un film, but several. Films of stories involving two people, small fractions evoking the possibility of love.
A love that becomes obsessive, demanding, dependent, desperate, exalted and suffocating, but also pathetic, comic, tragicomic, playful, frivolous, virtuous, sinuous, pretentious and emptied.
Images involving two people that outline and substantiate dances as a way of exorcising illusion or disappointment without ever ceasing to dance.
