Les Rencontres d'après minuit
Yann González, of the French group M83, eschews conventionality to create his own visual and textual universe in this, his first movie. Closer to theatre than to cinematic fiction, Les Rencontres d'après minuit centres on a couple and their transvestite maid as they plan an orgy. Among the guests are the Bitch, the Star, the Stud and the Teenager, four fictional characters that permit the director to unfold an exquisite, poetic, lewd and illuminated tale. An extraordinary soundtrack provided by M83 joins excellent performances from the amazing and forgotten Béatrice Dalle, French sport star Éric Cantona, the fabulous Fabienne Babe and Alain Fabien Delon.

A peculiar and unique work not suitable for complacent viewers.
