Here the whole story 👇🏼

Il vit dans une jolie petite ville au bord de la mer.

Tout est calme, propre, parfait.

Il a une femme, un meilleur ami, un travail stable, et une maison bien rangée.

Sa vie semble normale, très normale.

Mais… quelque chose cloche.

Un jour, une lumière tombe du ciel.

Puis, il entend son nom à la radio, comme si quelqu’un parlait de ses moindres gestes.

Petit à petit, il se pose des questions.

Pourquoi les gens autour de lui répètent les mêmes actions chaque jour ?

Pourquoi sa femme lui parle comme dans une publicité ?

Et pourquoi tout le monde évite de répondre à ses vraies questions ?

Il commence à tester les limites.

Il essaie de quitter la ville, mais quelqu’un l’arrête.

Il veut voyager, mais les routes sont bloquées.

Il sent qu’on le surveille, qu’on le suit, qu’on l’empêche de penser par lui-même.

Il découvre alors un secret incroyable :

Depuis sa naissance, il est observé.

Il est le personnage principal d’une émission de télévision.

Tout ce qu’il vit est faux.

Sa ville est un immense décor.

Les gens qu’il connaît sont des acteurs.

Même sa femme joue un rôle.

Mais lui… ne veut plus jouer.

Il veut vivre une vraie vie.

Alors il prend une décision.

Il quitte le monde qu’on a créé pour lui.

Il choisit la liberté, malgré la peur.

Il traverse la porte vers l’inconnu.
