Short film directed by Céline Dondennaz, photography by Dario Willomet

Synopsis

In a decadent city in the near future, Alwyn is faced with a dilemma: should she stay in this urban environment that is becoming increasingly hostile, or leave to take refuge in the community where Valery, her ex-boyfriend lives? The previous night he had touched her while she was asleep, so, he is now also a threat.

Commentaire

My diploma project consisted in accompanying the production of a short fiction film as a cinematographer. I was in charge of the camera and the lighting on the set. This short film, which I framed and lit, is directed by Céline Dondénaz.

This film is about a woman who finds herself in her apartment to solve a dilemma, accompanied by an artificial intelligence. She should flee the decadent city besieged by the last survivors to take refuge in a community village founded by her ex, Valery. But after one night when he touches her without consent, all her plans are disrupted.
