Audio Sample: In this excerpt of the Belleville Soundwalk join narrator and actress Florence Loiret-Caille for a drink at Café Folies. With a spirit in hand, she will disclose the complicated terrain of her relationship with aloof musician, and love interest, Spleen. As a final adieu, Florence Loiret-Caille will sing to you sweetly in Japanese. With the melody humming through the air, your mind reflects upon the hunt through Belleville she just led you in the hopes of being reunited with Spleen.
