"For Les Heures d'argent, des illuminations, I have tried to make an installation of the conditions in wich sudden images appear, to interrogate oscillatory phenomena such as presence, disapearance, and to represent them in a luminous way. Thus, the research consists in revealing in each sequence incredible light situations wich, as suggested by the title, sometimes depend on atmospheric accidents. Each sequence, as if it where an Illumination will reflect light as a phenomenon. Among these, let us mention mirage, scintillation, dazzle and radiance - manifestations with a halo. Finally, the selected poetic fragments from Rimbaud's Illuminations introduce words that create acoustic sparkles within the space and tension with the image. They do not only increase the semantic potential of the image but also, and hopefully, add starlight to it." - Suzan Vachon

Famed architect Jeremy Angust is approached on his trip to the Paris Airport by a chatty girl named Texel Textor who needs a ride. He obliges and after they part ways at the airport entrance, he misses his flight. As he settles in the lounge, he encounters the mysterious young Texel again, who insists on telling her strange story — and the conversation grows stranger and more twisted until it turns sinister and deadly.

Charlotte Gainsbourg agrees to play a witch condemned to be burned at the stake in the first film directed by Béatrice Dalle. But the chaotic production, technical problems, and psychotic breakdowns gradually plunge the shoot into a chaos of pure light.
