Antoine, a photographer, has settled into a joyful and disenchanted solitude, which is only broken from time to time by the presence of his friend Matéo, the child from the other floor. One morning, however, Antoine hears a piano piece, on the other side of the courtyard, in the building across the street, and tries to find out who is behind this very special performance. And finds : Elena, young student in ancient history, radical in her values, without prudence nor calculation, refusing a world where one does not believe in what one does, where one does not say what one thinks.
Antoine gets closer to Elena, to the life that is in her, to this innocence, and this audacity above all, that he has lost and that he finds again little by little. He finds his taste for art obsessive, he does not cease to photograph Elena, without her knowledge. Elena’s pictures begin to form a strange fresco on the wall of Antoine’s apartment, made up of pieces of a living life that is not her own.
Until the day Antoine decides to show his work to Elena
