La vall1972

Gaetan:
I'll show it to you. These white spots are the unexplored zones. It's there...

[points at map]

Gaetan:
It's not on the map. It's as if it didn't exist, but it does exist.

Viviane:
I thought there were no more unexplored lands. Your valley must have been seen from planes.

Gaetan:
You can't see it. It's shrouded in mist. It's not on the map. Look what's written here. This map is dated 1969. "Obscured by clouds"...

Hermine:
There's a thing I don't understand. You've talked about these places, that have all finally been found. Why is it this one that's still undiscovered? Don't you think that's strange?

Gaetan:
It's been discovered several times. But those who have done it have never come back. They had to stay.

Viviane:
Why?

Gaetan:
Because it's Paradise.

Viviane:
[to Olivier] Do you think he's serious?

Olivier:
[to Viviane] It's his passion...

Gaetan:
You don't leave Paradise. You can lose yourself there or stray away... and then... it's disaster, the curse. But you don't leave Paradise. It's impossible. Do you understand?

Viviane:
But then, if your valley's so terrific, why don't you go there now?

Gaetan:
Our senses are not yet... sufficiently... open. We're not in any hurry. Above all, we must destroy time to become one with it. We must first reach the tribes that live at the foot of the mountains. Their magicians may be able to show us a way to go.

Viviane:
[to Olivier] Can you take me back to the hotel?
