In the hauntingly titled drama I imagine your ashes in my cigarettes, director Axel Aramouni crafts an intimate and melancholic portrait of grief, memory, and the lingering presence of loss. The story follows a solitary figure, portrayed by Léa Del Rio, who is caught in a ritualistic and deeply personal act of remembrance. Each cigarette becomes a vessel for memory, a way to keep the essence of a departed loved one close, their ashes symbolically mingling with smoke that drifts into the air. This quiet, almost spectral routine is disrupted by the arrival of a new connection, played by Ken Kinankaziko, whose presence challenges the protagonist's self-imposed isolation. As Cécile Devisme's character weaves through the narrative, the film explores whether it is possible to honor the past without being consumed by it. With a runtime of just 27 minutes, this poignant drama uses its compact form to deliver a powerful meditation on how we carry the dead with us, and the fragile line between remembrance and letting go. The tone is somber yet tender, inviting viewers into a deeply personal space of sorrow and tentative hope.
