- A shy mechanic who is obsessed with fans meets a lonely hotel owner.

Laurent is a wind turbine mechanic who travels around the country, fixing and maintaining the devices. It's a solitary life, but Laurent is very good at his job, thanks to his affinity for fans -- so much so that he makes them his companions at night.
But during one trip for his work, he stays the night at a small local hotel, run by Anais. When they have dinner together, Anais takes a special interest in Laurent, and Laurent seems intrigued by her as well. But any further intimacy would mean changing his ways and making room in his life and bed for another person, even for a night.
Directed by David Oesch and written by Sandra Moser, this quirky romance short opens with a set of quiet yet distinctive images, situating the narrative's hero within a unique occupation and milieu. Laurent travels among the small towns of Switzerland in the countryside, wind turbines looming over the picturesque towns. Laurent tends to these gigantic structures, exhibiting an emotional communion with them as he does his work. The visuals emphasize the solitary nature of both the man and his work, conveying a portrait of a singular personality and preoccupation -- for Laurent is also in love with fans in general, traveling with several of them in his car and arranging them lovingly in his bed when he sleeps.
But when Laurent settles into a hotel for a time, the film shifts from an atmospheric, eccentric character portrait into a idiosyncratic romance, especially as the character of world-weary yet seductive Anais comes to the fore. Anais is a far earthier character than Laurent, and though she finds him a "weirdo," she doesn't let his shyness or awkwardness put her off from subtly flirting with him. Laurent, too, seems both intrigued and scared of Anais. Yet he has a competing obsession, conveyed in a lyrical yet very funny sequence of private romantic reverie.
Much of the dialogue is functional, with much of the character and humor coming from the indelible images and richly written characters. Actors Kacey Mottet Klein and Maria Rebecca Sautter as Laurent and Anais, respectively, are both understated, precise and funny, with Klein's seriousness about his job and his beloved fans bringing an understated comedy to the fore. Anais lets nothing get in the way of what she wants, including the presence of Laurent's fans. Her willingness to accept Laurent's predilections leads to a moment of genuine sweetness and possibility -- one that overloads the circuits of electricity, both actual and metaphorical.
When the power goes out and the fans stop, it propels LONELY FANS into a final romantic sequence that's both absurd, strange and yet oddly beautiful. It ends Laurent and Anais's narrative on a memorable note, one as wistful and whimsical as the characters themselves. Quiet, droll and offbeat, LONELY FANS is a sweetly hopeful film, conveying a corner of the world where even the oddest, most solitary souls can find acceptance, appreciation and attraction, despite -- or in fact because of -- their eccentricities. - Фільми й анімація
OnlyFans? or L'OnelyFans ?...........whatever turbines you on !
When a title is written before the script
it was actually way afterwards ^^
@@xant99 I suspect the actual order was [script] -> [english title] -> [french title] ?
@@xant99 Was the story meant to be comedy?
Wtf did I just watch
I think that it was just dry humour.
I have the same question.
I literally just asked the same question
When society rams the words only Fans down your throat...
The only thing you can resort to is maximum sarcasm
Well done to the person who made this...10 sarcastic points too you.
so you could say the guy is... fansexual?
It's called "objectum sexual."
Very bizarre and weird 😑.
I think the poor bloke misinterpreted what Only Fans is
😂😂😂😂
Nonsense! He was the first. The rest of us are wrong.
This kinda shows how we need each other (humans), despite how advanced technology grows
It made me laugh when they showed the group’s collective armpit fetish during the fansome. And it was a nice touch of the inn keeper calling out how hot his room was when they first entered which gave a lot of credibility to that scene. The juxtaposition with the cold frigid air and snow outside.once you left that room and inn of escapism was a nice touch on the modern digital society as well. The warm human trist in the cold snow while watching your biggest fan burn was nice to see as well which at least is a start in his path back to reality. The scars on the inn keepers face shows how we all have some sort of baggage that we carry with us. The power outage was a turning point.
I kept thinking he'd end up with his member chopped off from getting too feisty with a fan.
I never thought of that, but I'll give your comment a like.
@juanmacias hahahahahaha ROTFFLMAO I thought the same too dude 😂 🤣
@@The_Beast_666 I was just waiting for a thud, and the camera to pan out and show the turbine lmfao
Missed opportunity to name the lady character Fanny
bam! great idea
Allllllrightyyyyhhh need to take some phone detox sessions
Fans communicate with turbines. Whenever she needed him to come home, she burn that turbine and he comes to know about it through his fans.
He's definitely a fanatic!
badumtsssschhhhh
This is like some weird, fetish, blow me, movie. Only true fans will ever know what direction the wind is blowing in this one.
Quite the commentary on how we as a species are growing progressively more and more detached from each other. He was in love with something artificial, a machine, a fan, an onlyfans girl, etc etc etc.
we need real relationships, not emotional attachments to onlyfans girls, movies, popstars, smut books etc
The fact that this film even makes sense on any level proves that you are correct.
@@eugenetswong well im glad im not crazy then lol
@@nomadikmind3979 Yeah, definitely don't worry.
Dunno why so many people find this film weird and gross.
It is weird, but it's trying to say something about social interaction, odd obsessions, etc. We can parallel this to our own life.
Watching this is far more substantial than any reality TV sludge.
@@PixelGaming_2020 Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this! When people share good ideas, we get good value for our time.
I've never felt so dirty watching a video
That's the french for you.
IFKR!!!
😂😂😂
This was sooo weird..I get it! Humans are super weird, we are so unnecessarily detached from everyone when we feel a certain way.
we were definitely influenced from the pandemic when writing this missing sensual touches..
These are 2 lonely souls who meet through the love and hate of fans.
Well... Ok then... This is definitely one of the movies ever made...
That's a serious fanboy
alternative title ;-) or for the prequel
For some reason I though its going to be a mockery of only fans
The way I saw it, the hotel owner helped him wean off his obsession with fans (or at least reduce it) by being there, and also by doing something dramatic during the power outage, like burning the windmill.
She sees his obsession and only judges him in private for it, but is trying to help him by doing this.
Him waking up in a windmill tower shows that he has return to his old habits, but towards the end he looks off into the distance. It's unclear if he's looking at the natural landscape, windmills, or both.
Something about the mechanic's interaction with the hotel owner shows me that he's able to put away his odd obsession, he just needs a friend.
thank you for this great interpretation. you are onto something..
I think the guy was in an abusive relationship with his fans. He was trying to leave, but the fans would just shake their heads “no.”
we kinda saw the fans always as very jealous... so that's not so wrong ;-)
Ohhhh please...Lonely Fans 2, the spin off!
Me neither, unfortunately. I’d like to see those wind turbines forever active regardless of some drama
I’ll never get those 19 minutes back
"Vents solitaires" in french means "Lonely winds"
yes... we kinda changed the title a bit to english because it was just tooooo good :)
alright dude, what the flip….
Please assure us no fans were injured during production of this film.
I can do that! Yes, no fans injured during production. After it..... erm..... thanks for your nice words!
Im becoming infertile from eating scented candles.
Could have swore that was just me.
. The
Have you tried the unscented ones? Should clear that right up.
Thank you for sharing
wow i realized again to have a crush on nerdy-looking guys 😄
Beautiful cinematography
Gaetan Nicolas - beast :)
It's the title for me 💀
What in the 🌎!? 😂
The title is genius! Love it! And the film magnificent. So clever. Booking a double room. The view. I love the shot of his armpit hairs blowing in the breeze. Such a perfectly fitting erotic exchange. Beautifully made movie. Magnifique!
I feel attacked
I didn't get it !!!!
I think that it was just comedy. If you have any questions, then I can try to help. I'm just an audience member.
He did!!!
It's called "objectum sexual."
Nice vid man
Amazing!!
Wow, captivating, 👏👏👏👏👏
I don't really get it.
Welcome to French filmography.
I think the fans are so posed to represent his ex and the the woman is burning that down but the ending really confuses the f out of me
I think that it is mostly dry humour.
@@Adam-zj2lq I think that she hates the turbines because of environmental reasons.
The fans represent those girls online. I can imagine lots of dudes get addicted to the quick dopamine to go
ANY >>>> FAN's will never be the same 4 me ... thanks
we are very happy to hear that
Who was expecting plot about onlyfans model without subscribers too?
This reflects the worlds obsession with wind turbines. People either love them, or hate them. I could give many reasons for both.
Who hates fans and why?
People hate wind turbines. Because, they kill birds, because they are extremely expensive to build, and have a short life span. etc.
@@Dayvit78 those who know better!
I need a shower now.
Well, that spun me out!
Nice
The obsession of fans and turbines what is next the obsession of Fire and fireworks. 😂😂😂😂
I wish the wind turbines in the USA were that well made.
nice one!
''turbine fetich''... can we call him ''turbo man''...? the girl seems to like it... and at some point she ''looks'' she came pretty close to a fan too... [the scar ]
oh nice ! never thought about it that way...
Only in English could we make a pun on his”adoring fans”.
I'm not 100% certain, but I'm rather sure that in many many other languages there are words for ''adoring'' and ''fans''.
But “fan” is a double entendre in English only (as far as I know).
@@phil2u48 Well OK yes in English the word is indeed spelt ''fan''. This video is French and the title, in French means the same thing, so your statement is null and void.
I feel like it didn't really propel the story along.
11:43 At that moment I knew he was screwed lol ("the green fairy") will get him.
nice eye, nicely noticed
What did I watch? 😮😂
we are sorry :)
@@xant99🙂
Inscrutable...
oh ... erm... sorry?!
Haha I'm a big fan !
nah... you're a fan-boy... lol
Wow
So, is it a game between him and the woman?
It's just them being atracted to each other, even though they have different opinions on the machines. I think that it's comedy.
nice way to look at it..
Where does he get the outlets?
So….when he asks the fans if they are jealous it’s not the wind turbines that they might be jealous of but the girl?
His fans are gonna be so mad about the Herpes he brought home
:) good one
Ohhhhhhh kaaaaaaayy.
Nice watch! Anyone know the brand?
Ask the actor Kacey Mottet Klein ;-)
It’s literally “Only Fans” 😂
pon subtítulos en español por favor
To like or not to like ?
what do you think?
Oh right, Omeleto, I've watched all the good ones then.
Okay....🙃
😮😮😮😮😀✌️👍
Quoi?? Que??? Che???, what?? 😅😂😂😂😂
sorry, yeah it's... weird
Objectophilia?
Objectum sexual
LOL! Only fans. 🤣🥶
The movie maker decided the name first.
actually it was last ;-) it was called "Vents solitaires", "L'attraction des choses" and before that "EOLIPYLE" ...
Nice work! The art noir here is reminiscent of classics like Delicatessen or Belle de Jour or “weird French movies” (in a good way) for the rest of us. :)
I misunderstood the title of this 😂
i hope you could still enjoy it a bit
🤦
celui-là est un truc de ouf ! 🤦🤷
tu aimes ou tu aimes pas? raconte moi..
But why he loves fans🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
why not?
@@xant99 why because this is cold place they not need fans......but he loves fans why 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
This seems like an appropriate video at this time
Mehhhhh
Weirdest film ever!
oh that's a lovely compliment - in a way
it is really bad
sorry to hear :(
I dont really like the Omeletos with subtitles.
sometimes i just want something LISTENABLE
Listen to the beautiful French language. . .
@@coolrunnings3 the language of Love...
Too weird for me😑
I don't know if it's the nonsensical script, the lack of even a plot, the video description written by ChatGPT, or a single account replying to most comments giving the same unsolicited opinion that she thinks "it's just dry humour. If you have any questions, then I am here to help. I am just an A̶I̶ ̶l̶a̶n̶g̶u̶a̶g̶e̶ ̶m̶o̶d̶e̶l̶ audience member." in perfect spelling and grammar.
Has the AI taken over youtube already? I know most "science" channels are now pure ai generated gibberish, but now shorts too? Are we humans only doing the crrrrappy jobs now?
it's just dry humour. If you have any questions, then I am here to help. I am just an audience member.
I can't say this was fantastic. More fan static.
Anyway...we're doomed as a species.
