Ennui Ennui
by Gabriel Abrantes
Special screenings 2020
Official synopsis
An artificial intelligence, Obama and Georges Bataille rub shoulders within the heterogeneous universe of this modern tale. Both wacky and comical, these associations question the globalized future of the world. After numerous short films, Gabriel Abrantes offers Laetitia Dosch the space for a performance that is as comical as it is devastatingly sensual. Their collaboration continued with “A Brief History of Princess X”.
