Two strangers meet through a dating app. Maeva has a fantasy that she wants to experience with Luca: he should be blindfolded for their first meeting...

With a comment on the importance we give to physical appearances when meeting someone for the first time, this erotic movie explores the role our other senses play in desire and what it's like to discover someone little by little, one sense at a time.

perfumes & PARIS, AN INSPIRATION

When I discovered Etat Libre d'Orange's Sécrétions transgressive perfume, I imagined what it'd be like to create a movie about the smell of the skin, body and flesh. That's how I created a story about a stranger who is meeting a woman for the first time, without seeing her.

There's a common saying about men being more sensitive to the sight during seduction. I wanted to offer an alternative to this pre-conceived idea by showing a sensitive man who is connected to his feelings and an empowered woman.
