Mowgli and Shere Khan? No, of course not. A look. The look of beings
that simply cannot be caged. Or at least their souls can’t. This is how
an improvised zoo in Normandy can be stopped from becoming a prison. It
is a universe in which the princess is a childlike woman: Manon, the
adopted daughter of Célestin, a doctor who heals more than just the
body. Another subject of this kingdom whose colours grow all the
brighter as you approach its heart: Buggy, the artist who brings statues
to life. Then there’s Anna, one of those things that’s just left over
after a dramatic event. A world apart, an island in the middle of a sea
of life gone mad. The year is 1914. It was such a beautiful morning.
Then suddenly the war came and showed all of its ugliness.
