Distant Blue

Bleu Au Loin

A fisherman fleeing war lives on a remote beach, far from his past. Exile has failed to free him from memories that, like a decayed tooth, gnaw at his soul. He sees himself as a fish caught in a net: a prisoner of memory, of the endless spectacle of wars and of a humanity that has abandoned the world. In his attempt to forget, he throws himself in a long dive into the heart of the waves; the waves engulf him, and within them an instant emerges — a force suspended between drowning and deliverance.
