Synopsis:

Dream and Silence presents a family of Spaniards living in Paris: the architect Oriol, his wife Yolanda who is a teacher and their two school-age children: Celia and Alba. But a drama threatens them during the holidays: the eldest dies in a car accident which her father survives, completely erasing (or maybe this is his way of protecting himself from the pain and the guilt) the memory of his daughter. Totally broken, the dialogue between husband and wife will be rebuilt over time and through each of them quietly working on themselves in their own way, by coming back to the roots or by going round in circles, and by immersing themselves in nature, in the big parks (Luxembourg and Buttes-Chaumont) full of children, in a big social bath which is synonymous with a return to life.

Combining a traditional grief narrative with a Lady on a Train twist, a family is in a terrible car accident that steals the life of their young daughter. The father awakens from a coma a few days later perfectly fine, except that he has no recollection of his deceased daughter having ever existed.

On a patient quest for the essence of reality, Spain's Jaime Rosales is the author of a delicate and demanding film on the wounds of mourning.
