Feature Film

When, at 17 years-old, Claire learns that she is five months pregnant, she doesn't ask herself any question : she will give birth under X. It's at Mrs Melikian's, embroiderer for fashion, where she hides her pregnancy. And day by day, stitch by stitch, as Claire's belly grows heavier, it's more than embroidery art that is passed on between the two women. One of filiation.
