“If LA MORT DE LOUIS XIV. seems more reverent than my past work, it’s because of the subject. In this story there’s a unity of time, a unity of space, a unity of action, a unity of character. It’s difficult to be iconoclastic here, without just being provocative with empty ideas. So there’s a more inherent homogeneity to the film. And in the end it might be more conventional, which I am a little bit ashamed of [laughs]. I’m sure everyone was expecting more crazy things. But this was the best possible edit for the film. If crazy ideas would have worked better for the film, then I would have done it.” (Albert Serra interviewed by Jordan Cronk)
In the presence of Albert Serra, Julien Hogert (Camera) und Montse Triola (Producer).
