Seule la merBy the Sea

Short film, 12 min, 2021

Nico and Greg meet on a North Sea beach. They hadn't seen each other for years. A family tragedy has torn the two brothers away from their already turbulent lives, and nostalgia brings them back to a place full of memories.

Acquired by RTBF and France Télévisions.

“Conveys, with finesse, the nostalgia that can bring two people together.”
