Jorge is making a film around Le Trio en Mi Bémol, the only theatre play written by Éric Rohmer: Adélia and Paul have divorced long ago. One day she pays him a visit. Along the year they meet 7 times... For Jorge, “time and time again the broom has to go over all things, and all has to be dusted and said again”, even if he doesn't know why.

Declaration
film director
“A film collective, stimulating, loved. Outside, the closed world. Nobody could get out. No one has been able to return. Just like in Delos, where no one dies and no one is born. We worked very hard, as in an idyll, in a happy mutual agreement. A sentimental comedy. It was a brief moment, in our turbulent time, three weeks then expanded beyond the editing. A contradiction raised up: doors that close/doors that want to open. I am a contradictory being, I provide contradictions and don’t resolve them. My great contradictions force me to place myself in an ambiguous way in face of reality. What I believe to be is what I can be. And what I can do.”
