Tribute to Walt Disney's animated feature, Bambi. The video was the singer's favourite at the time, and was her sole one in sepia tone. It was broadcast for the first time in the television show Top 50 on Canal+ a few weeks after the single release. The scene of the drowning, shot in the same pond and with almost the same team as that for "Plus grandir", was very difficult to film because the singer was then afraid of the water. Farmer said in an interview that the sobriety of the clip was well suited to this song.

Category Breakdown
LGBTQ+ Representation
The narrative centers on a traditional, tragic romantic pairing between a female protagonist and a male counterpart. It lacks any discernible non-cisnormative identities or narratives that challenge heteronormative structures.
Gender Representation
Mylène Farmer provides central agency as the narrative's emotional and visual anchor. While she is depicted through a lens of emotional vulnerability, she avoids traditional male-dominated archetypes.
Racial & Ethnic Diversity
The cast is ethnically homogeneous, reflecting the film's 19th-century period setting. It functions as a stylized, Eurocentric historical tableau without diverse casting.
Religious & Cultural Diversity
The film utilizes gothic and religious imagery primarily as stylistic choices to establish atmosphere. It maintains a traditionalist view of romantic devotion rather than critiquing Western institutions.
Disability Representation
There are no identifiable depictions of physical or neurodivergent disabilities. The focus remains strictly on the psychological state of the protagonists through romantic melancholy.

AI Analysis
This music video is a high-concept, gothic period piece that prioritizes atmospheric melancholia over social commentary. It uses a sepia-toned aesthetic to evoke a sense of romantic fatalism and mythic longing. The work is characterized by a traditionalist approach to storytelling. While it features a female figure at the center of its emotional landscape, it lacks the intersectional complexity or systemic disruption found in more progressive works. Ultimately, the narrative architecture is designed to evoke mood rather than engage with contemporary identity politics or social restructuring.
