A little girl lets her tears flow and nearly drowns in her grief. Little by little, she accepts to bathe in it, to tame it, and allows herself the freedom to experience her emotions.
Cécile de France reads Philippe Soupault's poem "Pour la liberté". The short film is part of the "En sortant de l'école" collection, which features other poems by French poets on filmfriend.
Here is the poem in French:
Laissez chanter
L’eau qui chante
Laissez courir
L’eau qui court
Laissez vivre
L’eau qui vit
L’eau qui bondit
L’eau qui jaillit
Laissez dormir
L’eau qui dort
Laissez mourir
L’eau qui meurt.
