Synopsis
The film takes place on a lay-by on a motorway as night falls or when dawn is breaking. At twilight. In this half-light, vague silhouettes haunt the area and make out. Nobody knows where they come from nor where they’re going. That’s not the important thing but what matters is what they share at that precise moment, in this precise non-space. They’re close. They’re vulnerable, they’re at once alone and together: a motionless epic.
About : Hands-on documentary filmmaking

This intensive training, combined with the Hands-on Documentary editing course, allows participants to engage with the fundamentals of documentary filmmaking. After a brief period of technical initiation, analysis of reference works, scouting, and writing, each participant will move on to filming a short film on a common theme. The editing is carried out by an editing trainee under the supervision of professional editors. The goal is to understand the essential relationship between director and editor.
