Sois sage ô ma douleur
1990, 58:00 minutes, colour, French & English
Two friends are looking for new topics of conversation. A couple bicker gently. A woman talks about herself as a drowning soul. Twelve characters (eleven writers and a painter) - acrid, tender, funny - beat their heads against the wall of the banality of human existence and against words ... Will a great destiny ever come to rendez-vous with their petty miseries?
Deux amis cherchent de nouveaux sujets de conversation. Un couple s'écorche doucement. Une fille se raconte en noyée. Douze personnages (onze écrivains et une peintre) âcres, doux et comiques, se butent contre la banalité de l'existence humaine et contre les mots. Un grand destin saura-t-il un jour rencontrer leurs petites misères?
