Complete Satoshi Kon

This will be the first full retrospective in France of the films by the master of Japanese animation, Satoshi Kon, who passed away in 2010.

“Thus, Satoshi Kon’s great virtuosity, which he developed by studying with the absolute master Katsuhiro Otomo (the creator of Akira) and Mamoru Oshii (Ghost in the shell) consists in knowing better than anyone else how to place pitfalls. We believe that we have grasped the point in question, yes, this time it is the right one and we are even convinced that we understand its significance, we have a grip on the angle of attack; but soon, we realize that this specific pitfall was hiding another one which, itself, stands according to the laws of yet another virtuality, a second moment of doubt—and so on. He or she who finds particularly twisted the concept of a paper girl panicking at the idea of being virtual does not however ask the same question when confronted with a celluloid girl, an Ava Gardner who has been dead for a long time yet who can now exist on demand.”

(Philippe Azoury, excerpt from the 2014 EntreVues catalogue)
