Synopsis
Marc lives alone in an old mobile home. He tries in vain to feel emotions, to feel alive. He has only found one solution: climb on more or less dangerous acrobatic constructions. In these intense moments, although he plays with his life, he feels alive, he perceives the beauty and fragility of the world. But this state is ephemeral, therefore everything has to be redone every day. So each day he returns to his shed and builds new structures that will make his heart beat faster, that will make him closer to death and feel life more closely. How long can this game last? Can Marc find his salvation in this morbid ritual?
