Imagine a dialogue

At the start, we hear an alarm clock. The woman gets up, she changes shape. We hear a door slam, we assume she is leaving her house. We find her in a cafe. And then something strange happens: a form that seems to come from the sky approaches her: it’s her double! This is the first meeting between the woman of the present and the woman of the past. They talk to each other but what do they say to each other? They seem very relaxed. They see each other several times; At one point one of them seems to have aged. What does the two-headed woman represent? Everyone can give their interpretation. It’s as if the two women were one, which is the case, but with two heads, one for the present and one for the past perhaps!? What is the little insect doing there? What if it was all just a dream? At the beginning of the film, she gets out of bed, opens a door, which she closes at the end of the film...

Then move on to writing. Offer several images to the children (materials to print). They will have to write the dialogues between the characters in the bubbles. For students who write a lot and who have imagination, the work can be continued on a simple sheet using dashes. Everyone will present their work to the class. We can compare the different ideas and dialogues written for the same image.

Finally, ask the children to write new dialogues about themselves. If they could talk to themselves in the past, what would they say to each other? And in the future? To do this, they can fill out the document proposed to print (in the frames put a photo or draw their portrait and write the dialogues in the bubbles) then have them written on a separate sheet if some students want to elaborate.
