Futuropolis publishing house is celebrating its fiftieth anniversary. To celebrate the occasion, the publisher has concocted a major editorial program.
Among the titles chosen is an album from the 1990s signed by the greats Jacque Lob and Edmond Baudoin. The six stories that shape the album are told over the course of a journey. They lead our heroine into often perilous regions, to the heart of a harsh city whose protagonists illustrate the harshness. In these pages, Carla can finally emerge from the shadows and move towards the light. In the last story, imagined by Jacques Lob, who died of cancer before being able to write it, justice is done to him. The story is about a blind man who refuses to see the world in colors after regaining his sight. A little girl reduced to silence traumatized by the death of her parents, a suicidal man... accompany this dismal nocturnal stroll. The night shelters a fauna struggling in a city in distress, where tragedies play out amid general indifference.
