Sommes-nous autre chose que la somme cumulée de nos actes ?
Que reste-t-il de Garcin, d'Ines et Estelle après leur mort ?
Trois personnages peinent à assumer leurs actions passées et
doivent subir le poids infernal du regard des autres. Pour toujours.

GARCIN, journalist, INÈS, employee of Post and ESTELLE, a wealthy socialite, are led into hell. Hell is disarming since no torture, no executioner awaits them. It is a room, simply, in which they learn about themselves.

 

Jean-Paul Sartre describes his "hell" as other people. Those who are watching us, judging us, keep us awake. Forever our three characters are forced to live together and to torture in turn. Their hell gradually takes shape before their eyes as they reveal their lives and their tastes and cowardice.
