Summary
"Les gens ne comprennent pas. Ils pensent que j’exagère. Mais en fait, je cherche quelque chose qui a disparu. Quelque chose de pur, de limpide... qui n’existe plus." Qui est Romane Monnier ? D’elle, il ne reste qu’un téléphone portable. Des notes, des messages, des souvenirs, des enregistrements, autant de traces confiées à un inconnu, un samedi soir dans un bar.
