Details

In the beginning, there was a nursery, with windows opening on to a garden and beyond that the sea. A fragmented and dreamlike tale of friendship, loss, identity and love. Let us again pretend that life is a solid substance shaped like a glove, which we turn about in our fingers. Let us pretend that we can make out a plain and logical story so that when one matter is despatched - love for instance - we go on in an orderly manner, to the next. A multi-media production. A fragmented and dreamlike tale of friendship, loss, identity and love.
