Neuroma

Loneliness invades Alain's life. It is everywhere: in his childhood memories, his professional life, his interpersonal relationships and in his writings. Alain is a young professional theatre actor who accepts a contract that takes him to Sudbury (Canada). Alain is offered hospitality by a great poet from the area. Alain will see him as a mentor. However, Alain is stricken by severe head pains that distorts the present and his memories of the past. They also, generate visions and strange hallucinations. A doctor tells him that he has a brain neuroma and that he needs emergency surgery. The surgery is life threathning. Being so close to death made him come out of his general discontent and realise the legacy left to him by his mentor.
