Dans un univers en noir et blanc, deux femmes s'aiment, se racontent leurs rêves où s'affrontent désirs et craintes. Les époques et les événements se mélangent et le tout forme une mosaïque dans laquelle le réel ne se distingue plus de l'onirique.
Les jeux d'une caméra intimiste et l'ensemble du traitement cinématographique particulier du réalisateur Bernar Hébert viennent accentuer la distorsion du temps. Une vision de l'amour entre deux femmes, inspirée d'une nouvelle de Jane Warrick.

Two women love one another, in a black and white universe. They talk about their dreams: the confrontation of their desires and fears. Time and events merge forming a mosaic where reality and reverie become indistinguishable.
A probing and skillful camera, plus director Bernar Hébert's most particular formal treatment, emphasize the already present time distorsion. Inspired by one of Jane Warrick's short stories, Rooms is a unique look into the intimacy between two women and their fantasy world.
