It is the end of the market. Sales challenges are fading, the square is getting emptier, the gleaners are coming. Clothes, objects, boxes, piles… In this chaotic in-between time, two characters will create their own marketplace, exhibit and sell what remains of their history and encounter. And perhaps, find a common itinerary. Malherbe wrote: « It is in the assembling of these celestial couples / That if our past evils have left some remains / They will entirely end. »
