Les Films Pelléas

With closed eyes

Olivier loves Vincent, but Vincent is a prisoner of his past. Olivier is a theater man, imbued with a dreamlike universe. Vincent is haunted by the air disasters recorded on the black boxes that he deciphers every day. This strange profession plunges him into a contemplation from which nothing extracts him. Olivier would like to bring him back to life. Their relationship, intense and brief, goes beyond the framework of usual love. One day, Vincent gets the black box that allows him to hear the last words of his father, a pilot who died in a plane crash.
