Respire Page #4

Synopsis: This film deals with a situation where a fellow student fainted at the presentation of her semester work during a critique session. She fell on her own sculpture that dealt with the method of criticism. What were the preconditions that the framework of the institutional reality were disrupted at once? How did each one behave and how is the event remembered? The text layer encircles the recalled situation, recounts, parallelizes and contrasts the different versions. The dialogues or rather monologues do not come from the psychology of the characters, but represent positions of the witnesses. The cinematic dispositive gradually reveals the reconstructed spatial situation of the event.

He's handsome, he's sweet.

It's doing me good. You know?

Yeah.

How we laughed last night!

He's funny!

Isn't he?

I'm hungry.

Wanna help us?

I got lots of bread!

Want some?

You got cigarettes?

No.

I have to think of everything.

It's unbearable!

- You dip?

- You dip!

- It's better!

- Like an old man!

I'm going to bed.

- Bye, Morgan!

- Good night!

You're here!

How long are you gonna sulk?

- Me?

- Yeah, you!

It's a bit much.

I'm a stranger here,

you don't say a word.

What's the problem?

- I thought it was you.

- Yeah, right!

I blew it with the Spanish guy.

He couldn't care less about me!

Are you creeped out by your mom?

That's how it is.

It's doing her good.

If he's your stepfather one day,

please adopt me!

Come on, say yes!

Stop!

It's not serious.

It won't last.

You wanna sleep?

Yeah.

It's late, isn't it?

Good night!

Something's different!

You took those posters down.

Yeah.

I loved the ballerina.

You can have it.

It's in the closet.

That's not why I said it.

I'll get going.

I get to school...

Hi, Sarah, how are you?

I haven't heard much...

I haven't heard from you.

Hi, Sarah, how's it going?

Can we talk?

It's just that... I don't know

what happened over our vacation.

Sometimes you were really weird

and I was kind of scared.

Hi, Sarah, how are you?

Can we talk?

Is it North America

or United States?

Are you listening?

Not much.

I'm sick of this.

I smoke too much with you.

I'm gonna pee.

What pretty necklaces!

Did you make them?

- I used to.

- Why "used to"?

I stopped.

I got the stones from Brazil.

I always wanted to go there.

- Like it?

- That one's beautiful.

- You want it?

- Oh, no!

Sure.

I'll give it to you. Here!

Take it.

Sarah thinks I should

make jewelry again.

- You really like it?

- It's gorgeous!

She's talented!

Gimme a break!

Shut up and take it.

Okay.

Let's say it's a trade.

See that?

My first customer!

Not if you give it away.

What, honey?

Nothing.

Thanks, you're an angel.

It looks great.

You're beautiful!

Isn't she beautiful?

But you don't need

my necklace for that.

It's dumb, I give them names.

Really?

What kind of names?

Okay, here we go!

It's starting, Sarah!

Come over here.

Take my seat.

I forgot my toothbrush.

Take a new one.

Show her where they are.

Then you'll have one here.

I'm glad you're watching this film.

Hope it hasn't aged much.

- Let's find a theme, like last year.

- Oh, no!

We did superheroes.

No more tights.

- I was in my underwear!

- You were sexy!

Let's do something different.

My mom and I went on a safari

last Christmas.

- No?

- Classy!

Want a coffee?

One coffee for two!

Coffee, Charlie?
