« Butterfly in the night, like a child, I wander in the void that surrounds me, attracted by lights that reveal themselves to me. »
A homeless man with amnesia is taken to a local sanitarium specialising in post-traumatic disorders from the First World War. He has no memory, neither present nor past. He tries to hold on to everything around him in the hope of building an identity, but the rivalry between two doctors crystallises over him.
He thus continues his mental journey in a dreamlike wandering tinged with Greek mythology before finding himself confronted with a brutal reality that takes shape through the strange Dr Bonne.

With Héritage, you'll follow the adventures of two troubled youngsters, Nathan and Blaise, aka Blob.
Rather lost and homeless, they move from squat to squat, living, or rather surviving, by petty theft. Their only goal is to live free and unencumbered in the capital. But encouraged by his friend, Nathan sets out to find out why his father died when he was a child. This quest will lead him on the trail of a legacy that has influenced the trajectory of his life since birth, and perhaps even before.
All those condemned to death are innocent. Father Carlile, who hears them before the sentence is carried out, can attest to this.

Adding one's two cents upset the well-oiled machine of his routine will reveal theanaïrês who hides deep inside him. Between chaos and determinism, he will experience the cruelty of free will...
