Bouton

Director : Res Balzli

 

Johana, a young actress, and Button, her puppet, have chosen humour to face and beat a painful reality : the progress of an incurable disease. The film tells a story oscillating between smiles and tears, between the here-and-now and the world beyond, between documentary and poetic fiction. Despite the bitter reality of an approaching end, Button defies fate and it all becomes one big game. A harmonious film with painful interludes, an ode to the joy of life. Res Balzli observes the final battle and gives us a film overflowing with emotions.
