On April 7th, 1891, Arthur Rimbaud, 36, is getting back to France to be taken care of. His travel from Aden, Yemen, is stormy: in a caravan, he goes through dangerous territories and arrives in Marseille weeks later, on May 20th, where he is hospitalized. His mother meets him there but goes back to Roche, their farm in the Ardennes, where Rimbaud’s sister, Isabelle, is ill too.
Without his right leg, Rimbaud is driven to despair and decides to come back to Roche too. But he cannot travel and has to stay in Marseille, with his sister this time, where he dies on November 10th.
Alain Vircondelet depicts the poet’s final journey, unveiling many of his secrets: why did he want to go back in Roche? What is his peculiar relationship with his sister? Did he really recover faith in Catholicism?
