If we consider that billions of individuals live on this earth, hundreds of billions of animals and billions of billions of blades of grass

If we take into account the number of dreamers and the number of lakes

If we look at the seasons, the weather, the calm and the storm

What are the chances that we can bring together at quarter to midnight, in the middle of winter, on a frozen lake, a being rendered fragile by life, two springtimes, black, icy thoughts, a generous man wearing a coat in imitation racoon, a great desire for love… ?

What are the chances?

Reasonably none.

Utopically a few.

Theatrically all.
