Martinique
2017 24 mins OV English Subtitles : French
Syanna, a young Caribbean girl, wakes up with her memory wiped, and finds herself cast into a virtual gladiator arena, a video game in which she must collect 500 points a day, or die for real. Rebooting the dystopian, techno-colonial universe of his groundbreaking 2015 feature film BATTLEDREAM CHRONICLE, Martinique’s Alain Bidard returns with the World Premiere of the pilot for a series expanding his vision immensely. – Rupert Bottenberg
