PARIS, MON PETIT CORPS EST BIEN LAS DE CE GRAND MONDE
Lunettes (glasses) and Myope (myopic) present two ways of resisting the world. Identical and opposites, twins and adversaries, these two girls form a single character. Encouraged by Lunettes, Myope brings to life two characters, two relays, in the same city but in another dimension: Pierrot and Agathe. (F.P.)
