A small island off the coasts of Brittany; the weather is stormy, the wind is blowing, and dark clouds are obscuring the sky. For a brief instant, the sun highlights the shape of a tree, a house, a stroller. Then a thunderstorm breaks out... While going with the flow of the waves and tides, this short film tries to capture fleeting moments and reveal short-lived impressions. In a multi sensory evocation of sea, wind and light, it takes its time to explore a small piece of land bordered by the sea, inviting us to be curious and fully attentive to our surroundings.
