In a destroyed nocturnal Paris, ravaged by "accident or disease" (perhaps post war or mid rabies epidemic), a nightclub singer negotiates the space between the human and animal worlds, haunted by figures from her past in the liminal human-animal trance-space of the city zoo. Klaus Kinski narrates from his control room via vocoder, a vampiric Pierre Clementi plays Mozart on a flute at dramatic moments, Rufus discusses Spanish politics via a Donald Duck puppet, and Catherine Jourdan, at the center of every sequence, gathers the threads and performs one of the most rivetingly weird night nightclub songs on film, a story of a first erotic experience triggered by a lion mauling at the Berlin zoo. Dropping acid while viewing could only make the film more coherent.

DVD-R is in French with switchable English subtitles. Approx. 96 mins. See film sample for audio and video quality!
