“We Were Young" tells the story of a love that is too innocent to exist. We wanted to transpose this symbolism through the melting of objects and of Marilyn Lima's character... all because of my presence. In the video, Rod Paradot plays out in his mind the memory of this almost imaginary love, one that disappears as the story goes on, until it doesn't exist anymore. Marilyn, Rod, and I are playing our wax-made alter-egos. I really liked the artistic universe that Pierre Saba-Aris, the director, had proposed to me—mixing together something dreamlike and intriguing.
