Drama
A comet blazes over Paris, setting off a chain of unseen connections. Two friends wander the streets, reflecting on where life has taken them. A young woman finds the father she thought was lost forever. A sister deals drugs to support her brother. In another corner of the city, two strangers carrying the weight of loss collide. And on a stage, actors rehearse a play that eerily echoes every story unfolding outside. A tapestry of serendipitous meetings and the random moments that stitch our lives together.
