Emmanuelle Antille

From The Woods is the title of the third part, shot in spring in the surrounding woods. It tells the story from the point of view of the man we have glimpsed in the two previous episodes. For some months, he has lived alone in the forest, in his car. At night, he sleeps in the vicinity of some caves. He has visions, which are a mixture of memory and premonition, human beings, angels and animals. By day, he roves around and spies on the village folk. The man is haunted by the image of the adolescent girls living in the cabins, the woman he sees with her torch at the window, the girl by the river. He tries to understand the violence and despair of their actions, the mysterious forces which drive them on. In this quest, he wanders further afield each day. He seems to be increasingly lost in the forest, immersed in his dream world through the lives of the people he observes.
