A man withdraws from the outside world and his traumas, shutting himself inside a room. Repeating gestures that slowly turn into his refuge. What he believes will keep him safe becomes his own hell. Escape is not a refuge.
Actor, I work with façades and otherness. This very short film explores the confinement born when refuge turns into escape — a cocoon we believe to be protective, yet one that separates us from ourselves and from others.
Merci à Thibault Gilles et Margaux Dejoué qui ont bien voulu me partager leurs conseils pour ce film.
