The film starts with small electroacoustic shapes created by Jean-Marc Manteau, exploring the substance of breath, that of water as well as that of the act of walking. From then on, five small filmic shapes keep exploring these same elements surrounding my daughters as they stroll along the sea shore of Sète and Frontignan. "Dreams" spring from the impression of their bodies and faces.
