It was while proceeding with the digital restoration of the film CHANTILLY produced in 1976 that the idea for this project came about. Originally the idea was to do a follow-up to the original film, a sort of unrolling of all the graphic elements of the "multi-screen" grid; but very quickly, another film came to the fore. The superimposition of 80 painted transparent celluloid gels and monochromes used for the backgrounds called for new elements to come from a different personal, contemporary reality.
