Synopsis
A whimsical film about childhood dreams
Etienne and David are both convinced that extraterrestrial life exists. On a stormy night, they try to reach aliens using their walkie-talkies. In the process, David is struck by lightning and dies. Etienne, however, has no doubt: his brother has been kidnapped.
A tribute to E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982) and Stranger Things (2016), Echo à Delta unfolds its own identity with great creativity and the use of highly successful special effects. From a broken sibling, Patrick Boivin brings out a whole host of resources to help us keep our dreams alive and face reality head-on.
