It is the night. Some rare vehicles punctuate the silence of the district. A man is with his window. Its wife the interroge: - What you make ? - Nothing... I look at the district... - You still look at this bitch - Not, not especially... |
|
|
- It is intolerable, that enormously depreciates the district, one should make a petition...
One hears a train which passes on a metal bridge. A woman waits calmly. |
|
| A customer approaches discreetly the young woman and questions it. While a dog howls in the sound night, the man and the woman climb the staircase which mêne with the room. |
|
| When the light of the room ignites, one attends the overprinting of two bodies. These two motionless bodies are in rotation one compared to the other. One sees especially the abstract mixture of both. It is more one fantasmée projection of the Peeping Tom, that reality. |
|
| It is finished. The man goes down again the staircase and moves away. The young woman goes down again in her turn, calmly. She crosses the street while chantonnant. The Peeping Tom always observes it... Alas, a vehicle launched in full speed cannot avoid it... |

People of the district come to see the accident. The young woman dies gently. While an ambulance takes it along to far, the voice of the beginning questions:
- Then, she died? - I believe well... - Poor so young girl, if they is not unhappy... We liked it... nevertheless... |
