Synopsis

On a white background, a rope is stretched, contended by children. Reduced to a simple line, dots appear. Connected, it's a different game that begins. Roads are drawn, bridges are crossed, hands are intertwined. But gradually, the fabric of the white background stretches, unravels, and eventually tears apart… *Film inspired by the first page of the book 'Calligrams' written by Guillaume Apollinaire.*
