Video: Bruno Forzani & Hélène Cattet’s Let the Corpses Tan – 2017 TIFF Post Screening Q&A

Date:

We’ve been tracking this duo since Amer (2009) and shortly after 2013’s The Strange Colour of Your Body’s Tears. Once news dropped that Locarno would premiere their third collaboration we were hopeful that the North American release would be found in Toronto…and bingo! Hélène Cattet and Bruno Forzani deliver in the eye candy department with Laissez bronzer les cadavres (aka Let the Corpses Tan) and once again, this is a sensorial heavy experience. They stayed after their premiere for a quick Q&A going over the adaption and influences and casting (which I must add, was spot on perfection).
