It all started as a fun adventure that could distract her from yet another drama in her personal life.

Someone starts reading books to make sure he's not alone, but Sidonie Perceval starts writing novels to get through hard times: writing can hardly heal, but sometimes it's the only refuge when you're alone .

An unexpected meeting tears away the veil of mystery, illuminating new details of her marriage.

Shadows of the past are woven like bright threads into an exquisite tapestry of memories, reviving ghosts, lost illusions, missed opportunities, as well as dreams, nightmares and hallucinations.

And when the drained and disillusioned Sidonia has come to terms with the idea that everything that is best and most important in her life is in the past, amazing events that change her ideas about the present and the future.

Sidonia embarks on a stunning journey, the destination of which now depends solely on herself.

Exquisite Japanese landscapes slide past outside the window : the cold alienated geometry of cities sinks into the soft pink foam of blossoming sakura, just as the watercolor painted countryside is replaced by the dazzling brilliance of the Inland Sea of ​​Japan and the picturesque untouched snows of Hokkaido.

Their passenger car leisurely rolls along the lonely roads of love and loss, reconciliation and sadness to come to healing and acceptance of life's endless mysteries. , in which, observing the stillness, you can feel the movement and perceive the meaning in the unsaid. It is an exciting and uplifting experience. It has a lot of tenderness, quiet sadness and humor. An inspiring story of how new love blossoms out of loss and loneliness.

A deep, wonderful film that provokes us with a shimmering thoughtfulness, exuding sublime prose in every second of the screen and surprising with a distinctly clean style.

Isabella Ypera is excellent! True, as always.
