In a Paris marked by the confusion and disillusionment of the post-war era, we follow the life of Alexandre, a young idealist and womanizer who navigates between romantic relationships and philosophical conversations. Romantic and somewhat cynical, Alexandre becomes entangled in a strange triad with Marie, his ex-girlfriend, and Véronique, an intriguing woman who is drawn to his uninhibited nature. As the trio delves into endless discussions, each character reveals their desires, frustrations, and the complexities of love in a world where social norms are fading away.
The atmosphere of the film is intimate, almost claustrophobic, as we accompany Alexandre through foggy streets and Parisian cafes, where his encounters turn into reflections on freedom, solitude, and desire. Through their interactions, the story raises questions about the authenticity of love in a context of crisis, leading us to ponder what it truly means to be connected to another person. The bohemian backdrop of the 70s serves as a stage for the characters’ internal struggles as they try to find their place in a chaotic and changing world. With sharp dialogues and encounters filled with tension, this work stands out for its bold exploration of human relationships and the contradictions of desire.
