Daydreams
Rendez-Vous with French Cinema 2017
March 1 - 12, 2017
Set over the course of one tumultuous year at an artists’ residency in Rome, the feature debut from Caroline Deruas is a beguiling tale of creative struggle, romantic rivalry, and ghosts.
Past and present, fantasy and reality collide in the boldly original feature debut from Caroline Deruas. A group of young French artists converge at Rome’s sun-dappled Villa Medicis for a one-year residency. Among them are Camille (Clotilde Hesme), a writer whose marriage to a famous novelist (Tchéky Karyo) is disintegrating, and Axèle (Jenna Thiam), an erratic photographer haunted by spectral visions of the villa’s past. Deruas conjures a subtly surreal atmosphere through striking stylistic flourishes—iris shots, color effects, dream sequences—in this beguiling tale of creative struggle, romantic rivalry, and ghosts.
