A woman awaits the return of her lover, long since disappeared in the mountains, trapped by a glacier. In Bogota, the blessed souls of children killed by the army keep watch over their mothers. At the Syrian border, a mother talks to her daughter by Skype after she joins the ranks of Islamic State a few dozen kilometres away. From the terrace of his apartment in Saint-Gilles, a filmmaker scans the nearby prison, haunted by the screams of prisoners. Elsewhere, a young man, Ulysses, sails between light and shadow. So many films that take us to the heart of the human soul, through life forces, ruptures, bereavements and interior journeys.
