Synopsis
Maria wanders around the housing estate in the summer heat. Tomorrow, Stéphane, her dead brother, would have turned twenty. The echo of the scooters, which would zip around the streets not so long ago, hasn't entirely disappeared. Near a lake, she forgets her solitude and communes with the lights that pay her a visit once night has fallen
