- Overview
- Adapted, in our day, from the Isidore Ducasse’s (called Lautréamont) book, Les Chants de Maldoror (The Maldodor's Chants). The film is a cinematic language essay which "tells", in a non-linear narrative, the activity of a consciousness that confronts, relentlessly, with its brightest part as the most obscure.
