Still Lives

By Pierre Nepveu

Jerome lives alone. Twenty years ago, time stopped and reality slipped from his life. His days are differentiated only by the photos he takes -- one for each day of the year -- and puts up on his wall as his own personal calendar. But one day Jerome receives a letter from his daughter, Lea, from whom he was separated when she was an infant. Lea's mother, Arlette, had come to Montreal to work in the French pavilion at Expo 67, where she met the young photographer Jerome. After the birth of their daughter, the relationship soured and Arlette returned to France with the child. Jerome's desperate attempts to find them were unsuccessful. He left France in despair and has never known what became of them. When Jerome and Lea finally meet, it is in the midst of a thunderstorm that mirrors the turbulence awaiting in their own relationship.
