The(ir) Blurb...

(eng)
Birth, love, death. Three milestones in a person’s life, or perhaps in every one’s. The power of three moments, three pieces of life unvarnished. The power of the pure diegesis. And in the end, the mirror where everything comes together. Time is a point, the instant is eternal.

(fra)
La naissance, l'amour, la mort. Trois moments clés dans la vie de la même personne, ou peut-être de toutes les personnes.
La force de trois moments, trois morceaux de vie sans peaufiner.
Et à la fin le regard, le miroir où tout se joint. Le temps est un point, l'instant est éternel.

(esp)
Nacimiento, amor, muerte. Tres hitos en la vida de una misma persona, o quizás de todas las personas.
La fuerza de tres momentos, tres trozos de vida en bruto. La fuerza de lo puramente diegético.
Y al fin la mirada, el espejo donde todo se une. El tiempo es un punto, el instante es eterno.
