  • SOURCE
    SOURCE The fashion short film illustrates a young woman who is "missing" something. She is seeking another truth.<br />
    In the first part, she is in the city, where everything seems unreal. As she walks to break free of this non stop world, some water appears from her hand and her head. She escapes in her dream where she starts to combine and play with nature. She exercises a dance and plays more with water, which come from the floor.<br />
    She finally abandons herself to fall in water : the source of life...<br />
    <br />
    <br />
    The story is inspired by the poem MISSING of Dylan Thomas.<br />
    <br />
    "Seek him, thou sun, in the dread wilderness, 
For that he loved thee, seek thou him and bless 
His upturned face with one divine caress. <br />
    

Lightly, thou wind, over his dear, dark head, 
Where now the wings of dreamless sleep are spread, 
Whisper a benediction for the dead. 

<br />
    Softly, thou rain- and for his mother’s sake,
Shed thou thy tears on him; he will not wake, 
No weeping through that deep repose can break.<br />
    "<br />
    French Traduction by Alain Suied<br />
    <br />
    "Cherche-le, Toi, Soleil, dans l'effroyable désolation<br />
    
Parcequ'il T'aime, cherche-le et bénis
 Son visage abandonné d'une caresse divine.<br />
    Avec légèreté, Toi, Vent, sur sa chère, sa sombre tête 
Où se déploient les ailes d'un sommeil sans rêves,
 Murmure une bénédiction pour les morts.<br />
    Doucement, Toi, Pluie, pour l'amour de sa mère,
Répands sur lui Tes larmes; il ne s'éveillera pas :
 Aucun pleur ne peut briser le repos des profondeurs"<br />
