VIRALE

<p> You can also follow us on Facebook !</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <u><strong>Synopsis :</strong></u></p> <p>  </p> <p> Virale is the Story of Bea who accidentally killed her sister’s boyfriend in a car crash. She now has to face and overcome a destroying guilt and its damages on her mental health.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <u><strong>Director's note :</strong></u></p> <p>  </p> <p> Far from the idea of making a gore/graphic horror movie, “Virale” is using the codes of the science-fiction or fantasy to tackle themes like guilt and the consequences that a traumatic event can have on someone and especially on someone’s entourage.</p> <p> I’m extremely attached to the “Virale” project. It would be the fulfillment of my desire to work again as a director with an amazingly creative and talented team.</p> <p> This project provides also the opportunity to address some themes that are very important to me as a person and to bring together cinematographic influences that have influenced me throughout my life as a movie fan.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <u><strong>Inspirations :</strong></u></p> <p>  </p> <p> Jacob’s ladder – Adrian Lyne</p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Jacobs-ladder-1-1427375085" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/178387/Jacobs-Ladder-1-1427375085.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <em>"Black Swan" de Darren Aronofsky</em></p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="0256018f03984476-c2-photo-black-swan-1427375181" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/178388/0256018F03984476-c2-photo-black-swan-1427375181.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <em>"Enter the Void" de Gaspar Noé</em></p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="19275139-1427294464" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/177990/19275139-1427294464.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> Eyes without a face - George Franju</p> <p> <img alt="Images-1427294789" height="241" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/178002/images-1427294789.jpg" width="405"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> David Cronenberg’s movies</p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Nakedlunch-1-1427375213" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/178389/nakedlunch-1-1427375213.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>I’m also very lucky that Bruno Forzani, the director of Amer (bitter) and The Strange Color Of Your Body’s Tears, is working with us on this project.
