Les Films Cinémarc

A couple of morticians entertain themselves by betting on how many cold customers will come in that day. But one of the corpses refuses to cooperate...

Two men meet in Milan for 48 hours. They met for the first time, elsewhere. The voice-over speaks of this first weekend and the images are those of the second. The film brings them together and goes beyond them to evoke a city and a passion.

The sky is blue above the tiled swimming-pool... In this smooth and impersonal setting, a watcher and a changing-room attendant chase and overbid each other in the hope of eventually finding a way out. With the passing hours, hope is repeatedly broken and rebuilt.
