REGARDE MON COEUR
2026 · 2m
Directed by Lola Colin, Nathan Fièvre
Tones: contemplative, tender
Paulo is blind, so beauty for him is not the one others live with; he approaches his daily life with poetry and delicacy, his wife Rose his muse — until his destiny crosses that of Louise, a young woman searching for herself, oppressed by the beauty standards society imposes on her.

The inversion is half-baked — blindness as poetic wisdom is exactly the consoling narrative everyone expects, and the love triangle between disability-as-muse and youth-as-burden doesn't actually rupture anything, it just shuffles the same tragic furniture around.
Colin and Fièvre situate themselves thoughtfully within the cinema of sensory intimacy and the Bildungsroman, deploying tactile framing and silence as a deliberate formal choice that echoes the French tradition of psychological realism.
The decision to let Rose remain Paulo's primary emotional anchor while Louise becomes the catalyst—rather than having him abandon one for the other—hinges on a single sustained take of his hand finding hers in the dark that quietly rewires the entire moral geometry of the piece.
