Le Pier

2014 30 min Documentary

What do we know about childhood other than the constructions we make of it? A little girl died inside the day her father left. As an adult, she is still there, frozen, stuck in the sand, ready to dissolve in the storm of her childhood. But is he really gone? Can memory lie to us? A film where characters from the past are transformed into actors in the present. A cinematic essay, based on images that the filmmaker has filmed over the years and family archives dating from the 1940s, all shot in the same place, on the same beach in Old Orchard, Maine, USA.
