About

Documentary short film, Paris, 2013 Paris, 2013. In the heart of the City of Light, a wandering soul drifts through its labyrinthine streets, seeking connection in the fleeting moments of the night. This intimate documentary captures the raw, unscripted encounters between strangers brought together by chance. With no agenda other than to share time and space, they laugh, reflect, and simply exist—together, yet apart. By dawn, their paths diverge, leaving only the faint imprint of a shared evening. A poetic meditation on transience, human connection, and the beauty of ephemeral encounters, this film invites viewers to ponder the fragile threads that bind us, even if just for a moment.
