The work explores the essential need to regain awareness of the body as a primary means of expression, communication, and experimentation. Agnès Contat, a psychomotor therapist by profession, brings to the film a critical reflection on social systems that exert continuous pressure and repression on the body, locking it into unnatural frameworks. Through this lens, the film challenges therapies that merely attempt to "fix errors" within a flawed social system and asks how to prevent the "death of the body" caused by the intellectual and abstract over-privileging of discourse — often found in psychological and psychoanalytical fields — at the expense of physical reality.
