Les bruits de la ville

Les bruits de la ville

In the city, it's a cacophony: horns, sirens, jackhammers... Gaston is tired of this noise. He would like to sleep! He can't take it anymore, so he gets out of bed, goes to the highest hill of the city and climbs up a tree, hoping to find silence. There, he takes time to observe the sky, the stars and the moon.... And yet, it's moving in the sky too! When delicately, he hears a soft melody, the one of a cello which attracts him far away... What if Gaston listened to the city in a different way to better tame it? The city becomes a giant orchestra and the little boy finds his calm. By capturing a melody in all the sounds, everyone can create their own inner citadel!
