Marc Recha

In a lonely spot near the sea, a boy flies a kite made by his father. It's windy and the kite has become entangled in the vegetation. The boy needs an adult to help him keep it flying. Together, lost in the middle of nature, they will launch into the narration of a tale with myriad episodes.

Confused after months of work searching for material to write about a time in history that a journalist had often spoken about, Marc calls his brother David and they set off on a short vacation. But Marc cannot switch off and David takes him further south, to a place where they have heard people come to from far a field in pursuit of a fish with cat-like whiskers. Without realizing, the two brothers travel into unknown countryside where many ups and downs befell their grandfather, and come across a series of drifting characters that submerge them in a lost paradise.
