    • Synopsis
    • By observing the sessions of fifteen life coaches, Your
      Higher Self offers an offbeat philosophical essay around this booming profession, a true mirror of the values of our time. In a form that plays on distance to frame the intimate, the plot playfully explores the new sacralization of individual emancipation. Between an empathetic gaze and the unveiling of the absurd, Your Higher Self is a cinematic reflection on the universal and perpetual quest of all human beings: the search for meaning.
