Original
Résumé No one knows exactly when Violette appeared. No one knows where she comes from. She's standing next to the abandoned mine shaft, silent. Paul, Étienne, Marie-Jeanne and Judith come to see her and share their disappointments, their doubts, their hopes, their strong desire for life… Extrait « MARIE: […] What do you miss the most? The smell of your kitchen, your husband's quirks, his shirttail hanging out, his footsteps, his shouting, his silence? (Silence.) What did you say when you walked out? Did you find some way to explain? You probably found the right words. The right couple of words. Tell me. (Silence.) Please. » |
