“A la nage” lyrics are a strange extract from Perec’s novel L’homme qui dort (A Man Asleep), about crossing a lake in the middle of one’s head. The video shot in a single-sequence responds to this movement of crossing, without cutting, far from the water. Through the eye of an imaginary friend, we first follow a couple taking care of each other while exploring the world, then a bunch of friends going about their business. All these various characters finally cross the field to invite us into a round of bizarre joy…

“‘If there is a lake in the middle of your head, you better swim’. This song is about introspection. Like 98% of music”

“A la nage” is the second part of ‘Poetic Saga’ directed by Cestainsi, from debut album Touch The Lock, released on InFiné & Pain Surprises.
