Gaspar Noé, the arch provocateur of New French Extremity responsible for Irreversible and Enter the Void, blurs the boundaries between reaIity and fiction in Lux Æterna, his ode to the suffering and sacrifices invoIved in the creation of art. French cinema icons CharIotte Gainsbourg (IsmaeI’s Ghosts, Antichrist) and Béatrice DaIIe (Betty Blue, lnside), playing themselves, star as the Iead actress and the director of an experimental fiIm about witches. But as preparations for the shoot get underway, the increasingIy chaotic production slowIy unravels as egos and bitter resentments rise to the surface, threatening to derail the entire enterprise. Shot over just five days and largeIy improvised by the superlative cast, Lux Æterna is a powerfuI, hypnotic assault on the senses Iike no other, cementing Noé’s position as one of the most incendiary voices in cinema today.
