Hors du temps

Suspended Time
Competition 2024

April 2020. The film director Etienne and his brother Paul, a music journalist, spend lockdown together in their childhood home with their new partners Morgane and Carole. Every room, every object, reminds them of their childhood and awakens memories of the absent: their parents, their neighbours… How far apart are the brothers from one another and from the roots they share? As the world around them becomes increasingly unsettling, a sense of unreality – and even of disturbing strangeness – invades their daily lives.
