Thomas Depas

Thomas et Francis braquent Wilfrid, propriétaire d’un ensemble de carwash. Contre toute attente, celui-ci se montre ravi de cette compagnie venant égayer sa vie solitaire, et les autorise à piquer dans la caisse. Bientôt, Hélène et Lucie, deux copines du Sud, les rejoignent pour profiter de l’été à Poitiers.

Created thanks to the funds provided for the production of new artworks awarded to Dora García for the 45th PIAC, The Joycean Society is a film about a book club dedicated to James Joyce's Finnegans Wake; The Zurich-based group of students, admirers and connoisseurs read and dissect passages from what is often said to be "the most difficult book in the world".

A kid on an overboard, a camgirl setting up the show, a stranger sneaking trucks, while a gamer’s spleen resonate in a virtual dungeon. Hasbannium is a series of impressionist evocations drawing elliptic sequences in a metaphorical desert, an experimental fiction which has it’s root in Hesbaye, an agricultural region in Belgium with open horizons, devoid of forests or rivers. Through these landscapes, a choral film comes into being, with figures seeking out a humanity that reinvents itself in a universe of signs and meanings that are increasingly confused. The result is an impressive evocation of the temptation to disappear in which absence to self and world sketches out granular motifs.
