Bouton plot

Johanna is a puppeteer and ventriloquist. With her homemade doll Bouton, she tackles the cancer that is raging in her body with a lot of courage, humor and poetry. When speaking in Bouton's voice, she closes her throat and it is precisely there that the cancer has re-manifested after getting it out of her breasts. Bouton is Johanna's alter ego. She created it herself and feels responsible for him. They are each other's confidantes and say things to each other that they could not or dare not say to anyone else. And they both know better than anyone that he can't exist without her...
