Near-Masterpiece Of Surrealism..!

A Chaotic film that took seven years for Pierre Clémenti to finish and also the only narrative film in his catalogue. The movie is set in a totalitarian Paris, renamed Necrocity, where the authorities entrust the police powers to gang of fanatics in order to suppress a revolution, who later use drugs to finance the purchase of arms. A lot of scenes are colored in nauseating filters, experimented gleefully which is a sensory and cerebral experience. It's surreal film of a genius director. I can comment on it only in this way

If you dig movies of Stom Sogo, Paul Sharits, Stan Vanderbeek, Jamil Dehlavi, Aryan Kaganof, Kenneth Anger, Kurt Kren, Yvan Lagrange, Eduard Shelganov, Sandra Lahire, Michio Okabe, Yoshihiko Matsui, Peter Mettler, Sogo Ishii, Shozin Fukui, Nikos Nikolaidis, Shûji Terayama, Jack Smith and Derek Jarman, you will definitely appreciate this MENTAL piece of Filmmaking.
