Résumé
Dans son salon, un dramaturge à la retraite fait une révélation au spectateur, s'adressant à nous de façon nostalgique et intime, comme s'il s'adressait a des amis perdus de vue se retrouvant : il perd ses souvenirs et cherche la compagnie dans un voyage transformateur pour reconstruire et préserver des fragments de ses précieux souvenirs.
