The Last Gesture (original title: Le Dernier Geste) (2016)
Film
Duration 29'38 min, digital HD color 16/9
“A mountain as a place of exile or retreat, characters who have run out of words, three young brothers as we are told - just like in fairy tales - and a mysterious ritual to be accomplished. Nature offers such opportunities: climbing, building a shelter, lighting a fire... So many actions that appear to be piloted by the future possibility of one ultimate gesture.”
— Nicolas Feodoroff, 2016
This film premiered at FID Marseille 2016 — Marseille’s International Film Festival — and was shown in competition at the BAFTA qualifying festival Aesthetica Film Festival 2018.
