Storyline

Edit

"Satiemania" is the animation film, where piano music by Erik Satie acts as the connecting link for images of women in love, bored women, the Grand Canyon and Montparnasse, bars, brothels and supermarkets, breasts, butchered beef and boats in the rain. Grotesque and sensual, the film is a long voyage inside the subconscious where the influences of Otto Dix or George Grosz mix with those of underground comics, Reginald Marsh, Covarrubias and Ralph Steadman. —Peter-Patrick76 (peter-patrick@mail.com)

Satie Should Be in Our Wheelhouse

Once again, the music of a master is integral in the images portrayed in an animated feature. We are led past a whole host of grotesques, beauties, with violence, pain, and ecstasy. Some might even find it a bit pornographic. The artistry is striking, using still pieces and creating movement with quick cuts. I believe that by watching short films we can learn so much more by really focusing on the imagery and direction.
