On a winter morning, you amble along the lakeside relishing the cold with your whole body and waiting for the world to awaken.

Reminiscent of the coast of Marseille where you used to walk with your mother as a child, the wind blowing off the sea is as calm as can be, and you feel the warmth of your mother’s hand joined with yours. A sweet and innocent time of unconditional love envelopes you. The memory embraces you wherever you go.

Production: Taikado Koho

Among your earliest memories, in your mind’s eye, you can easily conjure up the images of a flower garden, perhaps, in Brittany. Your parents took you there on vacation and, together, you enjoyed a happy moment surrounded by the natural scent. It brings you nostalgia along with fresh joy when an irrecoverable time of innocence meets eternal consciousness.

As morning approaches, you see the first light of dawn peeking through the clouds. Ladders of light from the sky are illuminated pathways unfolding in front of you. The numerous beams of morning light stretch out and point in your direction.

At a familiar old bustling cafe on a street corner, the metallic sounds of cutlery resonate comfortably with the lively conversation of visitors.
