⚫ CANCELLED ⚫

On the occasion of the re-release of the film in a restored version, Bergamo Film Meeting presents for the first time in Italy an exhibition featuring paintings, drawings and work materials (in tempera and spanning from 1979 to 1984) of the first feature film by Jean-François Laguionie, Gwen, le livre de sable.

A unique, experimental, captivating and awe-inspiring film; a post apocalyptic journey in the burning desert characterised by warm, dark and sometimes dreamlike tones.
