Wind Day / Jour de Vent
(France, 2024, 6’32)
In a park, a family enjoys a picnic, a businessman works next to a grandfather who plays with his dog, while two lovers kiss passionately. The wind blows strongly and disrupts their daily routine. It blows ever stronger, so strong that they are all swept away together. In the air, they meet and watch their lives evolve towards new horizons.

Six students from the same class at ENSI. Some of them had already worked together, so they decided to form a joint team for their thesis film. They wanted to tell a story that was both universal and personal: each team member could participate and contribute a small part of their own story to the film. They create a film that represents each of them, but that also touches as many people as possible, talking about family, love, death, work, etc. What brings them together is the desire to make a poetic film, and a 2D visualization akin to that of a graphic novel. Their respective technical skills complement each other and each manages to find their place in the team.
