Ce qui reste des joursby Paul Mollin

My roleEditor & colorist

A documentary about Danièle, an elderly woman who lives alone in the countryside and is gradually losing her sight due to an irreversible eye disease. As blindness approaches, her relationship to the world begins to shift: memories resurface, fears of dependency grow, and everyday gestures, plants, light, and seasons take on a new intensity. The film explores how life persists even as the visible world begins to fade.

Rob d'Acby Paul Mollin

My roleProducer, editor & colorist

Robert Menot, known as Rob d’Ac, was a French illustrator and advertising artist born in 1891 in Acy-en-Multien. Trained as an engineer, he never abandoned his passion for drawing. After the First World War, he settled in Grenoble, where he became an essential local figure, creating posters, advertisements, illustrations, and children’s books. Inventive and demanding, he explored the art of signs, colors, and forms, blending poetry and graphic design in works such as his “zoomorphs” and “animots.” He died in 1963, leaving behind a rich and vibrant body of work, now preserved by his descendants.
