Four women in close contact with wildlife explore our relationship with living beings through repair, reflection, art and "living-with". Four exceptional journeys that invite us to decenter our human gaze and rethink our ways of inhabiting the world in a time of climate crisis.
A couple moves into a tower on an island and spends each day observing the small creatures living on the foreshore and in the grass. By reversing scales and perspectives the film establishes a strange relationship between the observers and the observed. While small living beings try to express their fragility in the face of intrusive exploration, what anxieties do humans experience?
In a community garden in Nanterre, inhabitants gather weekly around a pioneer tree species (empress tree, _pawlawnia tomentosa_) that will one day be planted in the future metro stations of the Grand Paris. Through these gatherings, they learn how plants respond to soil, water and urban conditions, while collectively imagining what their neighborhood could become. The film finds its counterpoin...
