In summer, there are always traditions, even if more relaxed. Here, it’s a picnic on August 15th. But this year is different, because Paul doesn’t belong to the world of children anymore, and not yet to the world of adults. Stuck in limbo, it’s going to be a different kind of picnic.

Cosmic Routine

How often do we think about the repetition of everyday gestures? Every day we repeat the same tasks, make the same treks. What would it be like to break free from that? Perhaps it would involve some inspiration from 1980s music videos, some neon and a desire for change.

The attitude of this film is punk and makes us think about the arbitrariness of the rules of the adult world, which impose decisions that seem totally meaningless to the children in question. Should we prepare for a more grown-up age before we get there or refuse to wear a bikini?
