Synopsis Ulysses is a young student in meteorology who has been working for six
months at a gas station in order to pay for his studies. Across the way,
there is another gas station where Marie lives with her father. The film recounts the week-end that will mark the beginning of their love. Ulysses is so convinced that nothing unusual could possibly happen in this
place, that he has drawn up statistics for all the events comprised in its
daily routine. This week-end will teach him that he is wrong, that life is multifaceted, full of oddities, full of encounters, some wonderful others violent, and that you can simply reach out and find happiness. All you have to do is want it. Festival selections |
