The Image Mill

2011 50 min
Coming soon

The Image Mill is an important archival record of a spectacular show put on by Robert Lepage and Ex Machina. The original work from 2008 is now part of our history. Shot from all angles (striking master shots, long pans and zooms), the film version includes breathtaking aerial views, while highlighting the narrative qualities of the original event and allowing Lepage’s symphonic and architectural vision to shine. René Lussier’s original soundtrack was reworked and reformatted to perfectly complement every image in this film, which immortalizes a monumental, iconic work celebrated worldwide for its artistry.
