À l’ombre d’Apollyôn

This 2012 year I am planning to shoot the film "In Apollion's Shadow" ("A l'ombre d'Apollyon") dedicated to Antonin Artaud and Unika Zurn. It's going to be an international project concerning European heritage, but Antonin Artaud himself admired traditional Bali theatre, so my project is going beyond European culture's limits and concerning the world's culture. In the basis of the screenplay there are two texts: one of them (Dark Spring) written in the middle of the last century by Unika Zurn, the painter and poet, a friend of famous Hans Bellmer; the other one, Chasing Black Shadows - by Jeremy Reed, a modern British writer. I've got a task to take a decisive step towards the renaissance of the author's cinema in Russia and creation of new cinema language.
