On the death of his mother, a filmmaker makes a film to see how much her disappearance has changed his vision of the world. It is an opportunity for him to look back over his relationship with her: a relationship that made him a free individual, as a man and as a filmmaker. “The Second Night” is the final part of a trilogy that began with “Letter From a Filmmaker to His Daughter”, which was followed by “Dreaming Films”. The making of this “Cabin Trilog” is the fruit of fifteen years of work and reflection.
