Alone through one long night, a writer on deadline watches his story bleed into reality.
A screenwriter sits by himself in front of his screen, a forgotten coffee at his elbow, trying to finish a script before time runs out. As the night goes on, the real struggle moves off the page and into his head, and the line between the story he is writing and the room he is sitting in starts to slip. Laurent Cliquet's short is a close, inward piece about the strain of making something against the clock, set to Vivaldi's "Summer."
