The wild bunch, bold cinematic rebels and adventurous films
FRANCE | 38 minutes | 2018
There’s no question: in terms of new cinema, Bertrand Mandico sets the bar high. There’s also no question that on the heels of The Wild Boys (screened last year at the FNC), his latest masterful opus of genre-bending cinema will get people salivating. Past, present and future intermingle in a pulpy world where Jules Verne meets Richard Corben. A pop confection about femininity and the search for lost emotions, an orgiastic and fetishistic delight that plays with the medium and an homage to sci-fi, actresses and anyone who doesn’t want to die. Be there or just be nowhere. NORTH-AMERICAN PREMIEREPreceded byY A-T-IL UNE VIERGE ENCORE VIVANTE ?
