 Rainy day in La Rochelle. The child in the blue raincoat has his hands in his pockets. He is not warm and he does not want to be outside. He had to go out, no choice. He has just been swallowed up by Nature. That day, it has transformed into a disturbing landscape, wearing a rainy coat, dressed in a large mossy and damp wall. A dire setting. The child is alone, alone in the rain, alone in the world. His feelings are mixed: fear, a little, but above all sadness and resignation. Why, he does not know. Then, suddenly, in the moment, a nascent joy, at the corners of his lips. "Look, it's just water, clouds and cracks. Let's run and see what's hiding over there!"
