The white screen. A line appears. This is the horizon. The blue surface, this is the ocean. What can look as simple as the ocean? Yet what secrets does the ocean hide in the deep, sometimes the conch murmurs to us what rumors shake the ocean. A woman on the beach, closed eyes. Listen, dream, and visualize through the image…. The film has already started.

(Un écran blanc : une ligne apparaît et c’est un horizon, une surface bleue et c’est la mer. Quoi de plus simple en apparence que cette mer. Mais quels sont les secrets qu’elle cache dans ses profondeurs, qu’elles sont les rumeurs étranges qui l’agitent et que les coquillages parfois nous racontent. Une femme sur la plage  les yeux fermés. Ecouter, rêver, se laisser traverser par les images … c’est déjà le début d’un film -  Florence Miailhe
