From their apartment, Carmen and her cat peacefully begin a long journey through winter. “I need a garland… thinks the little lady. A garland to brighten my days. » She then bought a 100-meter long garland to light up her home. The light will reveal memories of the past and rekindle the little sleeping flame within her. In both text and illustration, the album is based on a play of light and shadow. There is what we see, what we guess and finally, what will reappear. However, Carmen's daily life is not sad, she lives peacefully with her cat and her cup of tea. It’s the story of a little light, the one that lives in each of us. It’s the story of a new beginning.
