A collection of 4 "portraits" which cross litterature, architecture, cinema, and painting. Short stories of the XXth century which lead us to this point of intimacy where life and creation mix, where survivals of images and nature meet, from childhood to old age, in a kind of benevolence, a will to dialogue.
