Je reste !, directed by Diane Kurys and released in 2003, brings together Sophie Marceau, Vincent Perez and Charles Berling. Marie, a literary translator, sees her partner brutally leave her for another woman. Refusing to give up the apartment they shared, she decides to stay put, despite the presence of her ex and her new partner. This unexpected closed-door becomes the terrain of a hushed confrontation, where sentimental wounds and unconfessed desires intersect.

The visual universe of Je reste ! favors a soft and natural light, anchored in intimate and daily spaces. The textures are discreet, close to bodies and faces, leaving room for a hushed atmosphere. The rhythm of the image accompanies the exchanges, without interruption, in a peaceful continuity. The colors, sober and balanced, participate in a realistic visual aesthetic, supported by a measured calibration and a finish that seeks accuracy rather than effect.

The image post-production work respects the intention of staging, valuing the nuances of play and visual silences.
