Apart à Paris

A meeting between the self and the city. A play between finding yourself and loosing yourself.

The self is composed of multiple facets, whose realization is seen as one of the highest virtues in nowadays society. This short film shows a person navigating through the city, being surrounded by everyday life, following the road nearly as in a dream. The element of organic movement stands in contrast to the mechanical movement in the daily commute. Encountering different situations the character is searching for the self, for self realization, for the own way.
