The film recounts Viviane’s fierce and unwavering battle against the disease. We bear witness, as Viviane falls down the barrel of a microscope. With each passing minute we observe as she becomes less and less human, and transforms into nothing more than a specimen. We watch as her physician, Dr. Kelekian, preys upon her eagerness to survive this disease, and selects her for countless experimental drug campaigns, most which bear little to no fruits, and only succeed in further isolating our already lonely protagonist. The film does well, in allowing us to witness all aspects of Viviane’ life. Alternating between past and present, we observe, with a jeweler’s eye, paramount moments in Viviane’s life that made her the woman that she is
