This event contains content that may not be suitable for young viewers. Discretion advised.
Make yourselves comfortable, and let the screen do the restlessness.
All masked out and nowhere to go, you will be able to awaken the bedlam and bad blood dormant in you. As you traverse mystical expanses dreamt up by the imagination, realities of both the copacetic and callous kind await you. Whether hand-drawn or pixelated, these story "lines" will be sending you to zèle and back.
Get your fill-o-films, festivalgoers. The demonted dance of Court Métrange has begun!
p.s. Please give the lady back her necklace.

Julien REGNARD, 12’22, 2021, France/Belgique
One posh evening in a manor house. On their way home, an argument leads to a brutal car
accident. The car crashes into a pine tree. While Georges gradually regains consciousness,
Christina has disappeared. Terrified, panicked and full of guilt, he returns to the mansion
where the party is taking place to seek help, but the atmosphere turns even more into a
nightmare when he sees his wife, alive and well, in the company of a man with a bird's head.

Factory worker Beryl is totally obsessed with drawing, and her fixation dominates the entire
household. Apart from her husband, Ivor, Beryl’s model and muse, the whole family is
addicted to something – her son is a technical geek and her sister a fanatically-narcissistic
taxidermist.

On a late-night commuter bus, a necklace is stolen. A tragic and fatal road accident ensues,
as well as intriguing turns of events that reveal love, hatred and vengeance. The film
climaxes as the bus goes ablaze, burning and glittering against the dark coastal sky.

In these dark times, you may think that every potential hazard has been identified, but no
one has ever taken into consideration how dangerous dance can be...
