L'Amour à la mer

L'Amour à la mer

During her holiday in Brest, a young Parisian falls in love with a sailor. As autumn approaches, the couple is forced to part ways, attempting to maintain their connection through letters while living separate lives: he among his friends in Brest, she waiting in Paris. This film serves as a poetic cross-portrait of two cities, oscillating between realistic color footage and dreamlike, sepia-toned imagery to capture the rhythm of a bittersweet, long-distance romance.
