Description
The Dreamers A Romance by Gilbert Adair In the spring of 1968, Paris is alive with an air of social and political renewal. Yet for Théo, his twin sister Isabelle, and Matthew, an American student they've befriended, the city's vibrant energy is overshadowed by their own addiction - moviegoing at the Cinémathèque Française. As the French government orders the Cinémathèque's closure, the trio retreats into a world of their own creation, where obsessive private games and ordeals become all-consuming. Their apartment becomes a hermetically sealed universe, where inhibitions are shed and boundaries blur. When the real world outside finally encroaches on their delirium, the consequences are tragic and devastating. This is a story about the fragility of human relationships and the destructive power of obsession.
