"Going through my mini DVs shot over the past decade, I rediscovered a forgotten night sequence of Chantal Akerman and Sonia Wieder-Atherton leaving a brasserie where we had dined together in Montparnasse. The excerpt stayed with me for a while. This prompted me to focus on Chantal’s sound work in her films and her very close collaboration with cellist, Sonia Wieder-Atherton with whom she made more than 20 films.

It's not important who the winner of this battle is, because their joint effort to make a film represents a testimony about our differences and peculiarities. This film shows how the adventure of shooting a film can be utterly unpredictable, and also a great fun.
