À partir de son journal intime filmé en vidéo entre 1994 et 2005, Alain Cavalier nous invite avec humour et sensibilité à une méditation sur la vieillesse, la vie, la mort... Instants de vie, éclats d’images, il compose une mosaïque où le spectateur est invité à trouver sa place par-lui-même.

C'est l'histoire d'un homme gros qui veut maigrir. Il le fait pour éviter l'éclatement, pour séduire à nouveau, pour renaître (Re-né). Entre le personnage et le comédien qui l'interprète, il y a toutes les différences rencontrées dans un récit.

A woman and a poor artist begin an affair and eventually move in together, but the woman cannot get used to his life, his working-class existence. She leaves her lover to return to her relationship with a man of means. Ostensibly, she is rejecting her lover because she feels stifled by his position in society. But the class differences are metaphor for the quality of the love, with a woman deciding to be with a man who loves her for who she is rather than as an object of affection, merely the focus of a selfish love. She wants to be with the one who doesn't ask her to change.

Like two of her older sisters before her, Thérèse Martin is determined to become a Carmelite nun even though she is officially too young to enter the order. Thérèse's stubborn piety wins through, and her love affair with Jesus transfigures her short life. Alain Cavalier's account of Thérèse's joy in her vocation is based on her spiritual autobiography, The Story of a Soul.
