Screening Copy: 16 mm
We see two queers in faecal dirty grainy black and white, one giving the other a blow job. Their clothes are covered with an undescrible substance. It’s probably good that we don’t have TV you can smell. While jerking a certain body part back and forth with his right arm, one repeatedly begs the other : Give me your fucking puke, man !, and the other immediately sticks his finger down his throat. Apparently the one who’s asking is very thirsty, and he is indeed satisfied..… If, upon seeing this scene, the proverbial morsel does not drop out of your mouth onto your plate, I suppose nothing in the world can shock you anymore. Everyone else clasps his remote control with glassy eyes and prays the rest of the film will be different. And it is. Not like you might expect from a short film, for Dead Man 2 - Return of the Dead Man shatters every conventional film framework. Alexander Fortsch in DOOM no. 1, sept.1995

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.
