DEAD DREAMS FALLING
Can a soul come alive without being both haunted and carried by a primal rip that keeps it torn between the irrepressible quest for a certain form of completeness and the equally incoercible feeling of being deprived of it forever ?
This musical short movie evokes the life-and-death bond between two twins as a quantum entanglement explored through the interconnection of several levels of reality and temporality which are all versions of the same story. What is, maybe. What may have been. What could have been. What may have been deleted. So many dimensions that constitute a vast field of possibilities articulated according to a complex game. So what is real and what is fictional, since every version of reality keeps on haunting the others as an aborted alternative version of themselves ?

"Dead Dreams Falling" is more than a music video. With its complex narrative structure that includes a super 8 introduction and an outro as well, this musical short movie is designed to offer several levels of interpretation and questioning.
Public screenings can be done with a DCP or a digital file. Both options have a 4K resolution in 2.39:1 scope format. The digital file is a classic stereo .mov file. The DCP offers a couple of audio options (5.1, 2.0, 2.0 with more bass) in order to adapt to different configurations.
