The Apocalypse is near, Mimi has the fatal virus and four Bohemians are about to discover how their world is going to change, leaving the illusions behind.



Bohemians competing, producing power by peddling the bicycle.


Addio..senza rancor..In the contaminated zone


The death squad..


Si, michiamano Mimi..



Tante cose che ti voglio dire..una sola che grande come il mare..profondo ed infinito..che' il mio amore..e tutta la mia vita..



When one can fall in love over a cup of tea, when light of a candle becomes the most precious possession, when a power of imagination helps to keep warm..what happens to us? How do we react and adjust? How do we survive and live?
That was what the apocalyptic Boheme of Vignette's Productions
was about. An experience I will never forget. True, honest and fearlessly cutting into the flesh.

Besides, it was a great fun to work with amazing, inspiring crew and cast.
And a rear chance to spend almost two weeks in the south of France with my family, staying in the most generous and welcoming house of Tessa and Nigel.


One more swim for Mimi..



Sunshine..



The only meal without the wine..breakfast
