Laetitia Casta Stars in "Derriere Les Murs"

She sees rats in the basement where she works, but is it the cause of the disappearances of young girls as accusing the village? Often only on the screen, Laetitia Casta is "Behind the Walls", the first French feature fiction 3D comes out Wednesday.

The story takes place in Auvergne in 1922. Suzanne, a young Parisian modern - she writes and she smokes - came in a large isolated house in the country to make progress in writing a book. She set up his table and his machine in a basement convicted and loss. "The only place I like to write," she said.

The book advance, Suzanne, tense, withdrawn into itself, continuously tap on the old machine, but the memories haunt and depression rises. Gradually discovers the true Suzanne, full of cracks it compensates by regular consumption of absinthe, raising her nightmares and hallucinations.

The supernatural becomes the mirror of his troubles, and when girls disappear, like the work she was doing pretty Valentine, the village points to the head.

With her hair down, the former supermodel is every level of this "film fantastic atmosphere," according to the terms of directors and Julien Pascal Sid Lacombe. She is often alone, terribly alone. "I was happy when a player was coming," she said.

This is the first French feature film shot in 3D. "Like the sound and color, we believe that the relief marks a new stage in the history of cinema," say the two writers. "I am very proud to have participated in this adventure," said the young woman, who has already written a dozen films ("The Maiden and the Wolves", "Born in 68 "...).

With 3D, "the film becomes more realistic," said Pascal Sid. Nothing spectacular, no pictures, but snorkeling in an atmosphere inspired by fantasy literature of the nineteenth century, de Maupassant to Edgar Poe.

The tension is all the stronger, more rats living, even if the directors have refused to take them out of the screen to tickle the anxieties of the public.

The film was shot directly in three dimensions, with two cameras, while the relief is often added in post-production, with very uneven results. "We are the first drop of a huge wave," and Sid Lacombe ensure that it is the first feature film, after the short "The Sixth Man," selected Black Film Festival of Cognac.

This budget film "under control" is a first attempt before another project larger and more expensive, a war movie in 3D too, made with MK2, to be shot next year.
