Marché du Film reminder: Marc Caro's DANTE 01
A reminder that distribution rights for Marc Caro's Dante 01 are being offered for sale by Wild Bunch (Exception Wild Bunch S.A.) at this year's Marché du Film in Cannes.
As was previously reported here and there on ScreenAnarchy, the screenplay for Dante 01 was written by Caro and Pierre Bordage. The movie apparently stars Lambert Wilson as Saint Georges, Dominique Pinon as César, François Levantal as Lazare, François Hadji-Lazaro as Moloch, Bruno Lochet as Bouddha, Lotfi Yahya Jedidi as Raspoutine, Yann Collette as Attila, Linh Dan Pham as Elisa B., Simona Maicanescu as Perséphone, Gérald Laroche as Charon, Dominique Bettenfeld as B.R., and Antonin Maurel as C.R..
Here's a description of Dante 01 from Wild Bunch's website: "Deep space, at the edge of the galaxy. The future. A new prisoner arrives on top-security prison ship and psychiatric research unit Dante 01. ¶ Sole survivor of an encounter with an alien force beyond imagining, Saint Georges is a man possessed by inner demons, caught up in the battle to control the monstrous power within him. ¶ It's a power that will infect the other highly dangerous occupants of Dante 01, [jailers] and prisoners alike, unleashing a violent rebellion that turns this terrifying, labyrinthine world upside down. ¶ In the otherworldly hell of the ship's depths, through danger and redemption, each must journey to his very limits... each must confront his own Dragon. ¶ A unique science-fiction nightmare vision, Dante 01 is the long-awaited solo debut from the legendary co-creator of The City of Lost Children and Delicatessen."
