LE LIVRE DES MORTS ORDINAIRES (1987/91, stereo, 33 minutes)
The “book of ordinary deaths” is a modern equivalence with the fresco of the tombs of the ancient Pharaohs which show, beyond millenia, the actions of the most humble, of the most ordinary, living being of these times.

SUR LES CHEMINS DE VENISE (1983, stereo, 19min)
On the roads of Venice
Behind the beauty of the present cracked palaces, the shadow of the merchants awakens the bewildered clamour of the galleys, the babbling of the assemblies and the ostentation, still present, of carnivals of nostalgic, ridiculous, wicked aristocrats.
