Bottles in the ocean

François Ducat & 25' — 1991

Public letter writers, these modern day scribes, are reappearing in response to an increasing demand by the illiterate members of our society. Love letters, letters of complaint, rent payments, job offers… everything is difficult when one can’t read or write. The film takes a look at the role of the written word in our daily lives.
