The second part of the film consists of a time-lapse account of different actions...
SOMEWHERE IN ZEUS' SECRET DOMAIN
Hänzel & GretzelAs an insatiable rapist of subjects and spectators, Zeus makes use of all the tricks, borrows literally any image in attracting into his cathode Olympia all that might still resist his omnipotence. Five monitors, five mixes of rushes and final images associate Zeus’ mythological rapes with the manipulation and the ever-growing power of the media today...
THE MAGGOTS
Messieurs DelmottePinned on a soundtrack of heavy metal jazz, Messieurs Delmotte is lying on a blue mattress. Out of his mouth are hundreds of little white maggots. A horror scene in overdrive or a fantasy? Part of the ‘Century of the 20th Sex’ series....
