CET AUTRE

Overview

How far can a group of young people accept the otherness of a marginal person they are trying to welcome among them ? We won't know a lot of things about him. He will depart just as mysteriously as he had come, leaving behind him wall paintings of stunning quality and that sentence painted on a garage door : "Music soothes the savage breast." His brief stay has disrupted that young microcosm. It gave those young people an opportunity to reveal their personality to each other. Some appear as intolerant, others as cowardly and some as braver than the rest. We are tempted to consider this film as a documentary fable. Indeed, it has that eternal quality that is found in all founding narratives, since it raises a question that is as old as humanity : difference.
