Overview

A working-class soldier named Jean-Benoit is dragged by his childhood friend – now grown up and ‘grown out’ of their old interests – to attend a bourgeois lunch complete with earnest philosophizing and snobbery. This is the 1st feature in the Three Exercises of Interpretation trilogy based on Three Conversations by Russian writer and philosopher Vladimir Solovyov. The actors’ ‘exercises’ developed into a minimalistic trilogy on cinema and literature, social and spiritual life, acting in film and in real life.
