A man looks into the sky, in a moment of enlightenment he takes conscience of his presence and moves magnetically through space. There, he finds a mysterious image of himself, making this meeting the epicenter of a triple act of martyrium. Time and space are composed and decomposed through a multi-screen device. His flesh and the void become the visual substance which put the disfiguration of this bust-man in scene, his autodestruction is the vestige of the meeting of the individual and his Thanatos. The supernatural will and the surreal character of this being are expressed trough abstract and synthetic images. Real and virtual are confounded alternatively with the same dynamic as good and evil succeed throughout the cosmic cycle.

Collectif Jeune Cinéma

The Collectif Jeune Cinéma (Young Cinema Collective) is a filmmakers’ cooperative founded in Paris on June 12th 1971.

The vocation of the CJC is to distribute different and experimental films of all lengths, gathered in a catalogue that is continuously enriched by new works. This catalogue covers a very wide spectrum of aesthetics and cinematographic practices. For example, it is the only one to include experimental films made by children and young flimmakers (under 18 yo).

See distribution details here.

The CJC is also an archive for films and documents on experimental and different cinema.

The MNEME catalogue management tool you are currently browsing has been designed to provide maximum clarity and readability for both distribution and the archive. It meets international audiovisual item indexing standards (FIAF).

Each year, the CJC organizes the Festival des Cinémas Différents et Expérimentaux de Paris (a festival featuring different and experimental cinema in Paris) and schedules regular screenings each month in Paris or Île-de-France.
