LE FOU, un court-métrage fanstastique queer

What is the film about? The film tells the love story between two girls who don’t know each other yet. It all begins with Eleni moving into the same building where Charlotte lives. The first time they run into each other, Charlotte has the feeling of having always known Eleni. Even though they both walk away, a recurring dream arises from this exchange. Slowly, the lines between reality and illusion blurs. Charlotte is no longer able to differentiate what is real and what is not. She sees her life ruled by tarot cards. The dream becomes a parallel universe that offers her the possibility of a freer life, where love is shared abundantly. Or maybe the dream has turned into reality? The film takes form in the genre of fantasy, where the perception of reality depends on nothing but a tarot card. Who is the director?
