🎬 Movie

Martin returns to his native Limoges after twenty years away, intending to quickly sell his father's apartment. He plans just a couple of days in the city, but the old balcony becomes a trap—the door jams shut, and the key is lost somewhere in a bag of childhood memories. Trapped by his own past, Martin is forced to observe the life of the courtyard, where every neighbor is a living reminder of who he might have become. Gradually, the absurd situation unfolds into a series of ridiculous encounters: his former teacher who still considers him a failure, an inventor-neighbor with a perpetual motion machine project, and Juliette, a girl from his youth who now walks a dachshund in pajamas. Selling the property takes a back seat, giving way to strange negotiations through the window, improvised dinners on a rope, and an unexpected review of his entire life from the height of the third floor.
