Lalla Morte

In a post-apocalyptic world, a love triangle involves three models under the spell of a demiurge fashion designer. TABLEAUX D'UNE EXPLOSION is a collision, a reinterpretation of the Petrushka tale set to Mussorgsky's music, 'Pictures at an Exhibition'.

The end of the world of humanity as seen by Mandico. A time, as much future as current, where “cinema will be will be all other and nothing else”. Where, “it will be the last appointment of the flesh”, where “the energy will be cannibal and the sun will reflect to say nothing”. Pessimistic or optimistic is this cinematic pamphlet on art? In this destroy, and barbaric, jubilant and cinematic transgressive performance, it's up to you to think. Because thus spoke Bertrand Mandico...

We see a succession of scattered glam images: beat-up figures on lucid papers and dreamlike landscapes, until the (apelike) apparition of a model and her photographer. Together, they will play martyr and demiurge. They will attempt to achieve grace in a world of moving surfaces.
