Experiencing Interruptions?

There will never be enough images

A trip between Paris and Monçao, in the north of Portugal. Philippe knows this road by heart, having done it many times with his parents during the summer holidays. This time, this road will be done alone, like a grown-up. The opportunity to return to the deaths of his life, the lack of images, emigration and the tragic dimension of this journey. A mixture of happiness and mourning with each kilometer covered. Until the arrival, the opportunity to return to ghosts and memories. And maybe, create other stories. Because if this journey is his, it is also the one of millions of Portuguese people across Europe.
