MovieDocumentary
We are somewhere in the north of Spain. After crossing a town, in the rain, at the end of a tunnel, the valley of Solana opens up. The grain and the flickering of the film add a dreamlike quality to the journey that begins in the deserted mountains. For thirty years now, the villages have been emptied of their inhabitants, who were snatched by the towns, as a shepherd tells Emmanuel Piton.

A portrait of a Mexico City neighborhood where pages and pages are printed. And little by little, words appear...

Pupils will certainly be illuminated by the projector... How can moving images stay in our heads?"
