L'Argent

You pass a forged 500-franc note to buy bread and it changes hands again before reaching a trusting young laborer who believes it's real. A small mistake spirals into irreversible ruin across France. Bresson’s austere gaze freezes the transaction in mid-air, leaving the coin’s weight suspended forever.
