A film by Matthieu Verdeil, Dominique Poupardin and Jérémie van Quynh, with Abraham Poincheval

A medieval suit of armour crosses the Breton countryside on foot. Inside, the performance artist Abraham Poincheval. Followed by a cameraman on a bicycle, he takes us on a slow-motion road movie. Through encounters and zany adventures, the artist gradually loses his grip on reality. A poetic and fantastic quest during which the artist disappears behind the character he has created.

 

The armour is part of the exhibition UN AUTRE MONDE /// DANS NOTRE MONDE at Lieu-Commun.

This screening is organised by the Toulouse International Greenlandic Film Festival (Fifigrot) which is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year.
