About
December 29, 1935. Antoine, a pilot for the airmail service, crashes in the Sahara Desert. On the brink of death, he reflects, reimagines the world with tenderness, and reevaluates humanity from every angle. He talks with a curious fennec fox, discovers constellations never before cataloged, revels in the mysterious water of the oases, and opens his heart to the shadows of the desert. Yes! It’s a true story! Unless it’s just dehydration...
What to do?
Die within a few hours, or walk toward the east-northeast?
Toward life...
