The incredible story of swimmer Alfred Nakache, played by Amir Haddad. Alfred Nakache is one of those modern-day heroes whose story is little known. Born in Constantine and raised in Toulouse, he was France's best swimmer in the 1940s. Arrested by the Gestapo and then deported, he swam in the unsanitary pools of Auschwitz, from which his wife and daughter never returned. In their memory, this survivor of horror picked himself up and resumed competition until he regained his title as French Champion and once again represented his country at the Olympic Games. Filmed at Studio Marigny at the Théâtre Marigny in Paris's 8th arrondissement.

In the depths of darkness, a tense, young couple drive up to the doors of a dimly lit castle. Stepping inside they are thrown into the heart of a dance party. Bodies filling the sumptuous rooms of Château de Fontainebleau, writhe to the beat of a DJ. Gothic meets modern, ghost story meets dance party, this short film is an example of what can be created when the worlds of contemporary dance and modern film-making collide.
