Pour la mare
Once upon a time, there were two children. Pierre lives in the country, on a farm. Nina, a city girl, often changes homes and arrives on this corner of the world.
They meet and exchange on their divergent ways of apprehending the world. Pierre lives in contact with nature, which he observes with passion. He claims to be a scientist who must know how to name insects and look really well, because looking is something you learn and when you know how to look, you change.
Nina, an impertinent conqueror, sees the countryside as an adventure playground and wants to explore the nearby forest, a risky project according to Pierre, who seeks to temper this temerity. He tries to frighten the young girl by playing on the beliefs and superstitions surrounding the witch pond. Nina retorts: "I just saw a pond. I've got eyes. I've looked. It's a pond. When Nina reports from her exploration in the forest the existence of a construction site that threatens the pond and its surroundings, the two children's perceptions will reverse, their divergent approaches to their relationship with the world will disappear and commute into a higher cause to save the pond.
