• Damocles

​Proud bachelor and bachelorette and collectors of inconsequential adventures, 30-somethings Paul and Hélène share an apartment in Paris. On the night of her birthday, Hélène invites her cousin, whose favorite pastime is reading friends’ future. According to him, Paul will soon fall in love, but will also commit a crime. Paul does not believe in clairvoyance, but things change when he meets the beautiful Camille. Will the prophecy fulfill itself? A bittersweet comedy about the fear of relationships. An adaptation of the work Lord Arthur Savile’s Crime, by Oscar Wilde.​
