ABOUT THE FILM:

In French with English subtitles.

A tribute to Jacques Demy, LES CRÉATURES tells two stories: a couple’s life and the birth of a novel. Edgar and Mylène live like hermits. Even though they struggle to communicate, they love each other, and this love will gift them with a child. As for Edgar’s novel, it seems to write itself out of nothing, while Edgar wanders alone across the island of Noirmoutier. On his strolls, he always happens upon ordinary people. Through Edgar’s imagination they are transformed into the “creatures” of his novel, much like the pawns of a chess game he invents. Those creatures will come to life during a closely matched game of chess, in which Edgar does not only fight for his beliefs, but also for love.
