What are you doing?
Putting some order.
Why especially this morning?
Why did you run especially this morning? And why so long?
Oh. More than two hours.
Well, I probably needed it.
What's all this?
Old papers, old pictures...
Old souvenirs you mean.
Is this grandma?
Yes. It was before your mother's birth. We still had lots of projects then.
What's changed with mum's birth?
Nothing. Nothing at all.
You had to make... sacrifices?
She... She wanted to see the sea. You know... She had never seen the sea.
And finally? Did you go to the sea?
No. She died before. Too soon.
So... I'm going out.
I'll be back for noon.
Excuse me, can you please open the door? There's someone I need to see but she won't open it.
If she doesn't open it, she surely has a good reason.
What's up?
Can I have a coffee please?
Why the *** are you throwing things at people?
Are you talking to me?
Who else?
And you're talking to me since when?
Do you know that... you're all alone here?
Did you ask "What's up?" to me then when you walked in?
No, it was to the barman.
So it's him who threw something at you.
So it's not you?
I see.
I'm Lucas.
I'm Guillaume. Sorry to have not understood sooner.
It's OK. I'm used to it.
How do you live with it?
Why are you asking me this?
I don't know... I don't know how I would be doing if it was me.
Have a try. What would you do if you were blind?
I think that... I couldn't carry on. There's so much things that relies on sight.
So you think I should look for a bus to help me in a suicide mission?
No, not at all. I'm just saying...
Ok, ok. There are some things you can do, not I.
Don't you ever regret your life the way it was before... When you could see?
I don't think about it. If I ever think about the past, I...
When you lose your sight, you have to forget everything you knew before.
Not only when you lose your sight if you'd ask me.
What?
I mean, blind or not, you should not only rely about what you know.
Are you still there?
Yeah... Sorry... I just thought about something important I had to do.
What a fool to listen to a barfly...
What would you do if you were blind?
Is this a trick question?
What are you doing?
Put this on, we're going for a ride.
Goes out, goes in, never says "hello", never there to give a hand, and suddenly, it's carnival!
You're not ready yet?
You could tell me where we going!
The drawing you crumpled out back home... It was yours, wasn't it?
Yes. I used to like it a lot.
Did I ever tell you how I had met your grandma?
Every night, we were going to the cafe with the boys.
The girl in charge had almost our age.
So we teased her.
One day, with Arthur... You know Arthur...
We faked a fight, to make her mad. But Arthur crossed the line...
He took his glass and threw it to me.
He missed me.
But he didn't miss the girl.
She barely knew what had happened.
She didn't say a thing. But she was really mad at us.
She simply walked to Arthur and punched him down his chair.
I've never laughed so hard.
I laughed so hard that she turned on me. I thought I was going to be punched too.
So I took her hand in mine and asked her: "Can I buy you a drink?"
And she accepted?
She accepted.
You asked me what I would do if I was blind.
I have been blind. And I loved.
Grandpa! What's going on?!
Tell her how it was.
Hey... Did you miss me?
Do you often walk in cemeteries?
Only to see my parents.
Can I buy you a coffee?
What for?
To talk.
To talk about what?
About us, what we like...
Will be quick.
Something else?
We could talk about all the eel-words.
About our meal. The invention of the wheel. About the people who reeled. About how I'm made of steel.
About how we feel...
I don't want to be harsh but... why do you think we could get along?
I didn't propose to you, I only offer you a coffee.
Right. Do you know Echo's bar?
Meet me there, around five.
It's the first day of the rest of your life. Nonsense... It's the first day of my life. Let's see how it goes.
Enjoy each day before it ends.
That's what I meant from the start.
He looks like a hero, doesn't he?
And he doesn't know where he's going nor what he'll find there. What is he doing?
I start.
