Paris qui dort

René Clair's silent film reveals the City of Light, Paris qui dort (lit. Paris Asleep) is even more fascinating when accompanied by the music of Yan Maresz, who recreates his own device of speed and immobility. René Clair's first film, inspired by surrealism, Paris qui dort (1924) shows the French capital in the grip of a deep sleep, caused by the magic ray of a mad scientist. A meditation on the perception of time, this prototype for fantasy film, full of dreamlike visions and poetic flashes, continues to intrigue today. Its impact is heightened by the powerful and energetic music imagined by Yan Maresz for an atypical ensemble (flute, clarinet, accordion, cello, trombone, percussion, master keyboard, and live electronics).
