Heat Spell (2023)
L'été des chaleurs
As the afternoon heat sets in, Maxime feels the weight of each passing moment.
A hot summer day. A half-unpacked house. A mother who needs room to breathe, and a child who needs space to truly exist. As the afternoon heat turns oppressive, time seems to move entirely differently for each person.
