Samedi soir (Saturday night) is an intimate, carnal and reflective dive into contemporary youth. For one night, we follow four groups of young adults of different sociology, in the four corners of the country. With their differences, these complementary groups draw the contours of French youth. In this film, we try to listen to their desires and their dreams, without losing the sincerity and the energy of their evenings. A village party, a feminist collage, the last train station, a Parisian nightclub... These young people cross and overlap, dialogue and answer each other. Each group deals with a social issue and embodies a contemporary challenge. This film is also a collective psychoanalysis, where these young people talk about their doubts, their friendships and their loves, their studies, their commitments or their work. Because Saturday night is above all a time for sharing and letting go.

The images of this short film are linked to the concrete music by Michel Chion, and let the monologue of Saint Antoine (Pierre Schaeffer's voice) unfold and offer itself completely. The imagery, presented in parallel pictures, is intended to be earthy and close to nature, rediscovering, when necessary, the material which is offered in a metaphor surrounded by mists. At the sound of the gunshot, concrete in the music, occurs this break in the discourse, and the image, like this gunshot, finds the Asian connotation of death. And the dream raises the human form, then a face which offers itself before disappearing in the tumults of an imaginary sea. The earth seen from the sky then the sky itself take us very far (Robert Cahen)
