Floriane Devigne sets off across rural France in appreciation of the country's remaining public phone boxes, before the now-antiquated communication system is gone for good.
From remote villages to deserted areas, Floriane seeks out remaining booths in a journey guided by chance encounters and conversations with strangers. As she discovers the so-called ‘peripheral’ France, abandoned in the sweeping march of progress, she considers the value of the humble phonebox in a world of mobile technology.
This playful telephonic road movie is a charming, offbeat look at our changing communities, and a call to consider how we communicate in our globalised, digital world.
