La Face cachée de la Terre

Dimitri loves to photograph the people around him. But for years, images have been slipping away from his sight. He knows that, one day, he will no longer see. He is unable to take photos as he used to. So, night and day, hidden behind his camera, he gathers light and bodies. The film accompanies Dimitri through the streets of Paris, New York and elsewhere; as he captures his objects, the film camera captures him. Along the way, the director and his protagonist encounter friends including Pierre, who lost his eyesight twenty years ago, but also lovers and strangers, met by chance or during a photo shoot. Imaginations and gazes overlay. Dimitri’s photographs converse with the filmmaker’s reveries. Dimitri invites him and the audience to discover the hidden face of the Earth.
