Penetrating through the interstices of the half-closed shutters, a summer light brushes its dappled shadows in Noëlla’s apartment, as she is preparing to receive medical aid in dying. Dense and diffuse, the last days of life reveal the tight weave that intertwines these seemingly infinitely repeated gestures to the ephemeral nature of our passages. At night’s edge, here’s a non-sentimental look at death and how we cope with it.
