DIARCHIA

Giano and Luc hardly know each other. They are driving through a wood going to take shelter from the rain in Luc’s immense villa. After having broken the tension talking, disagreeing, they start wrestling playfully, but suddenly an accident happens.[:] Panic-stricken, Giano doesn’t know whether Luc is dead or simply unconscious. Luc’s sister arrives home unexpectedly. Giano hides, struck by guilt. Then he works up the courage to talk to the girl, but she virtually ignores him. Taking advantage of her wandering off somewhere in the villa, Giano recovers Luc’s body and silently carries it out, to the car. He sets off again for the wood they came from. He finds the courage to look towards the lifeless body. Luc is staring at him: the two friends give each other a look of complicity.
