Anne, it's time to go now

You're not doing so well today

And yet you started off well

What is it that's bothering you?

The dimensions

And we don't always feel like working with standard formats

The frame limits me

Why don't we go away together?

It would be nice

What do you think of that?

I can't leave my job like that

I can delay my departure if you'd like

You have to make this trip alone

Because you decided to

Have a good trip

Yes

Take care of yourself

You too

And you, Pierre? And you?

What will you do now?

I'll wait

I'll send her really nice cassettes of you, of me, of friends

Good thing she has her two addresses

Still, she's so fragile

Her father's death really affected her

Don't you find her changed?

It was always him that took care of her at home

I...

I didn't see her grow up

I had such a demanding job

Of course she...

she didn't get...

the love...

that she expected from me

Now it's too late

He was a real character...

your father

He wanted to be a writer

A brilliant man, filled with talent

but it never happened for him

even though he spoke ten languages

Yes but he didn't write any of them well

You know...

there is something impossible in each of us

I loved him a lot

really a lot

Coffee?

Yes

Are you planning to stay for long?

I don't know, maybe

If you're looking for a place to stay, there's the house

Thank you

It's kind but for now I prefer to stay at the hotel

Is the Saint-Justine Hospital far from here?

No, not really

Finally, Sarah wants to heal her animal

for the first time she is dressing the wounds she inflicted upon it

she hasn't spoken a word for the entirety of the operation

the operation has lasted almost fifteen minutes

Enter

Excuse me for interrupting, Dr Moison.

I've just received a call from Anne Trister

Thank you

The studies in fine arts are done?

Yes, they are

We'll go pick up your things at the hotel?

-Are you sure you don't mind?

Of course not, Anne. I have lots of space and you can stay as long as you'd like

Can you imagine this song in the middle of the desert?

It was like it was coming from nowhere. It had been weeks since I'd heard anything other than Arab music

I forget all the rest...the exhaustion, the heat

The past

It was only when the bus left that I realized I had forgotten to get out and get a drink

The desert is beautiful

The colours of the sand, the light, the rocks

I found the desert rocks so beautiful that I brought back a suitcase full

It's not easy to transport especially when you're hitchhiking

Luckily, I didn't have too much baggage with me to start, I would have had to throw some out

Hello

You're not coming?

What do you mean a storm?

You can't fall asleep either?

It's because of the desert

Want some?

Yes, I do

There's lots of images that come to me...

A hole in the sand,

the music,

a young girl hitchhiking, sitting on a suitcase filled with rocks

It's rare that I tell my stories about the desert

Usually people don't understand

You're not going to say hello to me, Sarah?

Who touched the things?

I don't know

Was it another child?

I don't know

I hope he's doing better than last week

Turn your chair

Vieux Lausanne Bistro, it's 10 o'clock

the day of my 33rd birthday

I've just received your enthusiastic cassette

The people there, their outspoken nature

I knew it would be agreeable to you

Ah, your knishes

I knew it would make you happy

Mmm, its good

I found you a studio

I wasn't looking for one

-I know but I found one you anyhow

Hm, where is it?

Nearby

It's a bit big for a painting studio but I'm sure you'll like it

It definitely needs a bit of work

A lot even

You were right, it is really fantastic

But I don't believe I can afford it

It's yours

Hello

Hi

Hello

Hello

You're here for your pieces of wood?

-Are they ready?

Yes, they're right there

Oh, it's great

He does really good work, eh? Your... your boyfriend

Yes, he does good work, my boyfriend

You don't find this a little big?

Yes but that's what's good about it

It would make a perfect carpentry workshop for me

Or a little concert hall

-You and your concert halls!

Yeah, it's not worse than a carpentry workshop, eh?

Don't fight for nothing, it belongs to her now

Yeah

Unless we make a trade?

Leave Anne alone, Thomas

What? It's a question she doesn't have to say yes

What do you say, Anne?

But with Sarah, for example?

With Sarah, it was...

it was special

She came to the day center, I often ran into her

And one day she knocked on my door

Alone?

Yes

Like this?

It's not right?

Yes, yes. It's very good

Why are you laughing?

We're like little girls building a dollhouse

How did she ask you?

The first thing she said to me was...

I don't have a real family and I break everything

later she asked me to take care of her

You're having fun?

So, did your team win?

It was a tied game

Is anyone hungry?

Oh, yes!

And you?

A bit

How does homemade carbonara sound?

-Mmm, good idea

I'll go prepare it for you

Is there any wine left, Alix?

I think so

Why are your hands cold?

You're not happy with me?

Are you going to psychologize me this morning, you?

A little bit

I told you that Claude offered me his apartment?

No, you didn't tell me that

-I didn't tell you?

No

Maybe we could take it together

Today, Simon, I realized that one must be in an extremely grave situation to accept to move

I would like to have the courage of my dreams

I would like to have the courage of my dreams

It's the same everywhere

Is there someone there?

Yes, me

Alix isn't here?

No

Did she tell you where she was going?

I think she had a meeting with Sarah's parents

Thomas?

You worked all night again?

Have you eaten?

I'm not hungry

You should watch out, you'll burn yourself out

I'll cook you some eggs

I thought you were supposed to spend the night at Thomas'

-There isn't a damn egg left!

I'll prepare you a grapefruit

Did you have a fight?

I don't know where he is

I don't know

I don't know why he does this, I don't understand

I don't understand

What did you talk about last time?

He wanted...

He wanted us to move in together

You refused?

No, no, not even

I said that...

I said wait a bit, that...

that you were here, that I didn't want to leave you alone in an empty apartment

He seemed to agree

Anne!

Anne!

Hello

You're good?

-Yes

It's completely crazy

I thought the mock-up looked nice

but to see it like this, it's fantastic

I don't know how to explain to you what it does to me

It touches me, deeply

It's true? You really like it?

I'm happy that you're here

I was starting to get bored

I really like your cat but it's been three evenings I've spent alone with him

It's starting to get boring

Thomas kept me prisoner

Here, I brought you something to eat

We'll sit here?

I tried calling you at the apartment several times

You were never there

I wanted to invite you for supper

I only have five minutes, I'll drink this with you and then go back to work. Cheers
