Expression de soi et uniformisation

L'Inconnue du banc Public

L'Inconnue du Banc Public is a new eight-minute movie from French filmmakers In Media Res, and while the language barrier may scare off most, there's no need to fear: the movie has no dialogue. Told beautifully through expert cinematography, sharp editing, strong performaces and an emotive music score is a universal story of longing. The title translates as The Unknown Girl of the Public Bench, and the story finds a nine-to-five worker watching from his work desk window as a happy couple is reunited each day with the man surprising the title woman with a bouquet of flowers. When the man stops arriving, the worker becomes obsessed with the lonely young woman leading to a heartbreaking conclusion.
