Hiding death doesn't make it disappear. A young girl suffers from the adults' silences and feels dispossessed of her right to mourn. Once an adult, she describes the tender gestures that bind her to the dead.


Marine Bline studied art at the Ecole Estienne, Esaat, and Emca, and received a diploma from La Poudrière. She has directed several films and worked on commissioned films and TV shows.
