What seems light and volatile can be infinitely deep ; and what seems powerful
and expansive can be contained in a breath.
The eternal dance of water and wind, like the sigh between two hearts, carries with it
the same gravity of the deep, and all at once dissolve into a brief murmur.

Once upon a time, men erected multitudes of chimneys, from which great volutes
of opaque gray smoke rose to the heavens. Crushed, suffocated and paralyzed, mankind
and the Earth were annihilated in a single salvo, leaving behind only ruins, reminiscences
and spectres of that sunken time.
Here, in the depths of these abysses, lie a few remnants. As if in a hazy, lonely dream,
walls and nooks and crannies reveal the semblance of lost and spectral existences.

Shared memories, events, adventures or nightmares - what is everyday life like in wartime,
when you're a child and still think the tooth fairy under your pillow replaces your tooth with a penny ?

An open-hearted dialogue with marginalized youth in the rural Ardennes. At the heart of this intimate story, Yvonne _ the director _
meets Victor, a 20-year-old farmer, and his community. The film captures their heartfelt exchanges about relationships and sentimental setbacks, while exploring the generational and socio-cultural gap that separates them.
A poignant reflection on the quest for meaning, through the confrontation of diametrically opposed reference points, contexts and life experiences.
