Caterpillar.01
| Drama, English, 90 min
Writer and Director
Margaux is a woman seeking her truths, Zagaib a man hiding behind his lies. In parallel stories they live opposite lives, crossing each other in the dimension of dreams and memories, induced by a secret formula prepared by the shaman Baudelaire, used by Margaux as a spiritual journey and by Zagaib as an escape from reality.
The movie is set in a fictional city, an urban mosaic of several metropolises, in a near future, after the promised apocalypse that the world expected but never happened.
Floating between drama and comedy , the somehow surrealistic characters extrapolate their existentialist searches in a humorous, critical and frantic portrait of urban chaotic life.
