Sous le signe du lion

Directed by Jean-Michel Bouhours

It was while proceeding with the digital restoration of the film CHANTILLY produced in 1976 that the idea for this project came about. Originally the idea was to do a follow-up to the original film, a sort of unrolling of all the graphic elements of the "multi-screen" grid; but very quickly, another film came to the fore. The superimposition of 80 painted transparent celluloid gels and monochromes used for the backgrounds called for new elements to come from a different personal, contemporary reality.
