“A fascinatingly bizarre evocation of the sexual and intellectual passions of a certain M. de Sade.”
—The Washington Post

“A perverse philosophical meditation on basic human desire.”
—The Austin Chronicle

“Considerable oddity that manages to be witty, thoroughly obscene, and rather endearing all at once”
—Time Out

Leave it to Belgian filmmaker Henri Xhonneux and Roland Topor (one of the minds behind FANTASTIC PLANET) to take the piss, and a number of other fluids, out of a historical figure like the Marquis de Sade. This depraved mix of live action, puppetry, and claymation sees the infamous libertine as a dog-faced prisoner of the Bastille with only his fantasies and talking penis for company.
