A UPS messenger travels across the continent delivering packages. One day, while stuck in traffic, he is struck by the sight of a woman’s silhouette through the window of a building. Following her, he finds himself in an abandoned boarding house, immersed in an in-situ installation, at the heart of which a female voice from another era addresses the visitor. Who is speaking on the recording ? And who was the woman at the window ? As the door to the room opens slightly, a stranger appears, and an unusual face-to-face encounter begins.

Through a back-and-forth of digital images and voiceovers, La cantate intérieure draws us into the curious mechanics of art and its illusions — a mechanism that deceives, at times, the viewer and, at other times, the very creator of the work.
