'Everyone remembers this famous image by Édouard Boubat in which a young woman with dark hair, her bust forward like the prow of a ship, seems to be contemplating the future. This woman is Lella. Édouard Boubat went on holiday with her and a friend, Séguis. They share their passion for art, they love each other... Fifty years on, the photographer and his muse lift the veil on this part of their youth and on their story, caught up in the joyous and poetic whirlwind of an era whose charm is gone forever.'
