CGiii Comment

Life analysis and the staging of his own fantasies are Noël Herpe’s subject matter in his work as a writer and a film-maker. Following up on a book about his relationship with his father, his mother is invited beside him for a double portrait on the double couch installed in front of Arthur Dreyfus’s camera. Much unpacking, misunderstandings, denials and declarations: this boulevard theatre of intimacy is as moving as it is fascinating thanks to both protagonists’ ability in saying everything and telling each other everything about their passionate relationship.


Noël (52 ans) et Michelle (77 ans) forment un couple étrange. Ils ne peuvent pas se passer l’un de l’autre, mais dès qu’ils se trouvent réunis, l’atmosphère devient électrique. L’un comme l’autre gardent un pied dans le passé. À travers le prisme de la parole et du silence, Noël et sa mère explore une relation mère-fils dans ses détails les plus tragiques, mais aussi les plus comiques. Par son dispositif unique, leur dialogue s’avère une plongée dans l’intimité universelle qui unit les parents à leurs enfants.
