Summary :
Isabelle, 28, is a medical secretary in a Parisian hospital and has for several years been carrying out a personal project, which is to pose naked for the great photographers whose work she admires : Ralph GIBSON, Tomio SEIKE, Jan SAUDEK, Jean-François BAURET, Willy RONIS, Claude NORI... Isabelle offers her body to the eye the photographer in exchange for a print. Each of her encounters is related in a diary. Isabelle's boldness and determination, as an ordinary young woman who has nothing to do with the world of fashion and models, her marvellous and secret collection of snapshots and her moving diary are the three primary elements which convinced me to make this short film where I hope to approach the world of feeling as much as that of artistic truth.
