Stolen Kisses

In a world that feels simultaneously familiar and restless, a young man steps out of the army and into a city where ordinary jobs hide unexpected currents. The streets pulse with a quiet humor and a lingering melancholy, offering enough space for day‑to‑day survival while hinting at deeper currents of desire and disappointment. The atmosphere teeters between the mundane routine of night shifts and the alluring promise of something more—an ever‑present sense that one’s next turn could reshape a life.

Antoine arrives with a head full of books and a heart still tethered to his first love. He carries the lingering habit of writing letters to a violinist named Christine, a relationship that has endured distance and time. Their bond is rooted in tenderness and shared history, yet the demands of adulthood pull them apart, leaving Antoine to navigate a series of ill‑fated jobs that seem designed to test his patience and self‑belief.

A chance encounter with a private detective drags Antoine into a seductive orbit far removed from his familiar world. There, the wife of a client, the enigmatic Fabienne, exudes a confidence and allure that captivate him, presenting a stark contrast to the gentle, longstanding affection he feels for Christine. The dynamic between these two women creates a tension that is as much internal as it is external, pulling Antoine between the comfort of his past and the excitement of a new, more complicated allure.

Against this backdrop of restless ambition and lingering sentiment, Antoine finds himself at a crossroads. The film explores his struggle to define where his heart truly lies while he searches for purpose amid a series of fleeting occupations. The tone remains gently bittersweet, inviting the audience to wonder whether love, ambition, or self‑discovery will ultimately guide him forward.
