Absence
2021, French. Directed by Marc Héricher.
Alone in the center of a barren square, an old man collapses. Passers-by who gravitate around avoid it, ignore it or come to its aid. The sudden interest of journalists in this man will lead us into a grotesque and absurd media vortex questioning our relationship to society and the media. From benevolent help to TV shows, our winter hero becomes the number one subject of our society. It becomes an experience of the absence.
