Demon and Marvels

Name: Demon and Marvels
Duration: 7 min

Bertrand Langlois

1977 | 7 min

This film depicts a world where space is geometric, noise is absent, and nothing happens until a small white cube comes bumping along, stirring up movement where before there was none. Chased by a wicked demon, the cube symbolizes the inner struggle that goes on inside each one of us: the confrontation, or evasion, of one's private demons. Film without words.
