Comedy show and songs at the Château de la Roche

One evening, a couple found themselves discussing a book, Correspondance, a collection of letters exchanged between Albert Camus and Maria Casarès over a period of 15 years.

From the moment the wife held this voluminous book in her hands, she couldn't put it down! Worse still, she sought out Camus' other books and listened to hours of podcasts about the man and their relationship. Through reading and listening, she became both Camus and Casarès, living through them and imagining them. The husband knows only what he has read about Camus, and that was a long time ago. However, he is greatly intrigued by his wife's fascination with this epistolary relationship.

Throughout their evening, this couple, both in their late seventies, reread certain passages written by the two lovebirds in question, comparing them with their own love, what it was and what it has become. These often joyful evocations bring back memories, songs from the past, songs about separation and love. The woman passionately rediscovers her piano and her songs, while he recites a few letters to the rhythm of improvised music. Journeys, musette dances and words to express love parade by in a comical and invigorating dialogue.
