Pastorale
Francis Leclerc
Canada (Quebec), Experimentation
All by himself in a spaceship in 2225, Antoine Corriveau lives alone and shares different intimate subjects with other isolated persons residing in other spaceships.
All those characters are memories and parts of Antoine himself. As the story evolves, the line between him and the others gets blurred until it collapses and leads to the spaceship's explosion.
Death is like a second chance, a memory, a futuristic projection, or a parallel world.
