One of the very few films made by Etienne OLeary all of which emerged from the French underground circa 1968 and can be very loosely designated diary films Like the contemporaneous films by OLearys more famous friend Pierre Clementi they trippily document the drugdrenched hedonism of that eras dandies OLeary worked with an intoxicating style that foregrounded rapid and even subliminal cutting dense layering of superimposed images and a spontaneous notebook type shooting style Yet even if much of OLearys material was initially diaristic depicting the friends lovers and places that he encountered in his private life the metamorphoses it underwent during editing transformed it into a series of ambiguously fictionalized sometimes darkly sexual fantasias Experimental Film Club
