Most of us start each morning in front of the bathroom mirror, brushing our teeth, cleaning ourselves up, and getting ready for the day. But while we only see one moment each morning, the mirror watches us age and change as the years pass, a reality that filmmakers Antoine Tinguely and Laurent Fauchere explore in their short film 'Le Miroir'.
