Ana Fiúza

When an old fan breaks down in a crowded attic in Marseille, the sweltering heat forces a middle-aged Portuguese man and a young Cameroonian man to work together to fix it, despite not sharing a common language.

In the week leading up to her company’s premiere of Giselle, Lena, the understudy to the lead role, struggles to meet the demands of the performance. Seeking escape, she spends a night with friends on the outskirts of the city. As a rave gradually transforms into a forest haunted by echoes of the ballet’s second act, Lena confronts a version of herself still trapped beneath the spotlight.
