Vampires du cinéma

VAMPIRES OF CINEMA
Fiction cinema has always incorporated documentary practices so as to appear more authentic. This retrospective is a serious and playful attempt to reverse this point of view by showing just how much the documentary itself has often infiltrated fiction in order to vampirize its codes, styles and forms : the capture of Fiction Palace by the vampires of cinema!
